the video standard in which you want your desktop to be encoded and routed
to the MXO video outputs, such as for display on a video monitor or
recording to a VTR. If the resolution of your desktop is larger than the
standard you select, MXO will scale the video output accordingly. If your
desktop resolution is smaller, the video output will be centered.
