Vidikron VL-26HD User Guide

Use the controls in the Setup menu to perform advanced image quality adjustments and 
access various other DView features.

OSD Language: Select OSD Language from the Setup menu and press ENTER. Then, use the 
up- or down-arrow buttons to select the OSD language (English, French, Spanish, Portuguese 
or German). Press ENTER again to confirm your selection. 

PC Mode Adjust: To improve the quality of projected images from a computer or other 
VESA-compliant, RGB (480p or higher) source, select PC Mode Adjust and press ENTER. 

• Auto Adjust: Auto Adjust automatically adjusts settings to optimize computer images. To 

execute Auto Adjust on command, select Auto Adjust and press ENTER. 

• H  Position:  Use the up- or down-arrow buttons ( 

 ) to highlight H Position. Then, use 

the right-arrow button ( 

 ) to shift the image to the right; use the left-arrow button ( 

 ) 

to shift the image to the left. 

• V  Position:  Use the up- or down-arrow buttons ( 

 ) to highlight V Position. Then, use 

the right-arrow button ( 

 ) to shift the image up; use the left-arrow button ( 

 ) to shift 

the image down.

• H  Size:  Use the up- or down-arrow buttons ( 

 ) to highlight H Size. Then, use the 

right-arrow button ( 

 ) to increase the width; use the left-arrow button ( 

 ) to decrease 

it. 

• Phase: Adjust the phase if the image shows shimmer or “horizontal” noise. Pixel phase 

adjusts the phase of the pixel sampling clock relative to the incoming signal. The effect of 
this control is similar to that of a tracking control on a VCR. 

For best results, use a good test pattern such as a smooth gray consisting of a clear pattern 
of black and white pixels, or a similar “half on, half off” graphic image. (You may notice 
that you can stabilize the image at more than one point. Use either setting in this case.)

To restore the factory-default Position, Size and Phase settings, select Factory Preset and 
press ENTER. 

Caption: Select Caption from the Setup menu to control the display of closed captions when 
watching programs that contain them. 

• Display: Select On or Off to control the display of closed captions. 

• Mode: Select one of four captioning modes: CC1, CC2, CC3 or CC4. CC1 usually contains 

the native-language captions; if a program is captioned in more than one language, those 
captions are carried on CC2, CC3 or CC4. 

The DView also supports “text mode” captioning; to use this feature, select Text1, Text2, 
Text3 or Text4. The text modes, instead of displaying a few lines of captions somewhere 
on the picture, take over all or half of the screen to display scrolling text information. (The 
text modes are seldom used today, so most of the time there is no information there to 
see.) The text field is sometimes used for embedding Internet data (called Interactive TV 
Links, or ITV Links) in the captions.

• CC On Mute: To have the DView show captions when the audio output is muted, set this 

option to Yes.
