DAVE amplifier - Setting up
Continued
There are two different types of video signals. Some equipment is
manufactured to one type, some to the other. One is called either
'S Video' or SVHS (which usually has a higher quality picture), the
other is 'Composite video'.
The DAVE does not convert one to the other.You can connect
equipment sending both types of signal to your DAVE at the same
time. However, you shouldn't connect two similar pieces of
equipment (e.g. an 'S Video' Laser disc and a 'Composite video'
Laser disc at the same time).
If you are connecting some 'S Video', and some 'Composite video'
equipment you must connect your TV (monitor) to both the
'SVHS' and the 'COMPOSITE VIDEO' MON OUT (monitor out)
sockets.
For optimum video performance always use 75 ohm cables
designed for video use.
When watching a videotape that has a copy prohibit signal, eg
Macrovision™, the On Screen Display (OSD) may sometimes
wobble or move slightly.This is normal and does not indicate a
problem with the unit.
