Video Connector Compatibility

Reference

With the wide variety of display targets supported by modern video decoders, and the multitude of video monitors that can be
used, it can be challenging to match a display target to compatible type of video input connector. Adtec Digital has created this
reference to make it easier to match video monitors and their input connectors to compatible display target settings in our
products, in order to get the best performance out of your Adtec Digital device.

Here are some common rules regarding the matching of your video input connector with the display targets it supports:

Video display targets must be selected based on the monitor type that will display them. In this reference, we list out
the display targets specific to televisions and PC monitors.

Display targets must also be matched to the connector type.

DVI connections support both television standards and PC monitor standards.

If you are using a DVI connector, match the display target to the monitor type.

Newer LCD and plasma monitors may support both television standards and PC monitor standards.

If you are using an LCD or plasma monitor, match the display target to the connection type.

Use PC monitor standard display targets for VGA connections

Use TV standard display targets for other connections.

If you are using a converter/adaptor cable (for example converting HDMI to DVI), the connector to consider is the one
that plugs into the monitor- that connector must determine the display target used.

Television Standards

If you are connecting your device to a television or monitor that supports television standards, you should use one of the
following connections and display targets.
