Compatible Video Formats

The projector supports analog video in NTSC, PAL, and SECAM formats, and it automatically adjusts
to the incoming signal. It can receive these formats as composite video, S-video, or component video—
which it accepts through the Video, S-Video, and Component ports, respectively.

The projector also supports digital video (SDTV, HDTV) and various monitor display formats. Digital
video is accepted by the HDMI and Component video ports. The PC port accepts analog RGB
computer monitor signals.

If necessary, you can select a different Aspect setting to optimize the image. The resolution at which the
image displays for a given setting depends on the currently active picture source, as listed in the
following tables.
