5 COMPONENT OUT jacks
Use to output component signals.
To connect a device equipped the component video
input connector, use COMPONENT OUT jacks on the
unit. If you use COMPONENT OUT jacks, you can
output high-quality video with less signal deterioration
in quality than S VIDEO jack.
You can set the output video format by using [HDMI/
CMPNT] of [VIDEO OUT] in [IN/OUT REC] menu.
When DISPLAY OUTPUT switch is set to ALL, text
data such as time code, menu, and alarm message are
superimposed on a monitor connected using
COMPONENT OUT jacks (page 25).
Notes
• When images are output in 720p format, some of the
text image data (outer frame: underscan portion) on
the monitor may appear cut out. In this case, check
the text image data on LCD monitor of the unit or on
a monitor using S VIDEO OUT jack or the VIDEO
OUT jack. Also, when your monitor has an underscan
function, you can check all the text data on the
monitor during underscan.
• When you change the video format setting of [HDMI/
CMPNT] of [VIDEO OUT] in [IN/OUT REC] menu,
the video signal output from S VIDEO jack, VIDEO
jack, or HDV/DV jack may be distorted for a
moment.
• When you play back an HDV-formatted tape with
copyright protected signals or input HDV signals
with copyright protection to HDV/DV jack, pictures
may be output in either 480i (NTSC) or 576i (PAL)
format, regardless of the setting of [HDMI/CMPNT]
of [VIDEO OUT] in [IN/OUT REC] menu.
• When you play back a tape in DVCAM/DV format
and while an EE picture in NTSC/PAL is displayed,
the 480i resolution or the 576i resolution is output,
regardless of the setting of [HDMI/CMPNT] of
[VIDEO OUT] in [IN/OUT REC] menu.
• The output level of COMPONENT OUT jacks is as
follows:
