We recommend the “Video Essentials” DVD or the “Avia Guide to Home Theater” for setting
these adjustments.
9. Repeat Steps for Each input Device.
Settings are saved for each individual input device.
Please note: that the front panel display will not show the same settings for each input as what
is stored in memory for Input or output aspect ratio. The front panel will show the last selected
aspect ratio setting which may not be the same as what is stored into memory. The DSP setting
must be manually changed to the desired type since this selection is not stored into memory for
each input. You may select DSP= Auto for convenience, for best performance it is
recommended to manually select the correct source material type.
