For 1080i digital and 1080p signals, channels are pre-configured at the Vidikron factory for 
each aspect ratio. These channels use Custom size presets to achieve the selected aspect 
ratio. 
• “Custom” Resizing: The “Custom” re-size descriptor automatically appears in the Size 
and Position menu when any of the values for Size, Height, Horizontal Shift, Vertical Shift 
or Blanking do not correspond to those for a preset. This option is not offered in the Size 
Presets pull-down list. 
Other resizing options are described below, for the sake of completeness. In actual practice, 
though, they are rarely (if ever) used when the Vision 140/150 is used with the VHD 
Controller. 
• Default Resizing: When you select a new source, the image utilizes as much of the 
projector’s display area as possible for the type of incoming source data, but with minimal 
or no changes to aspect ratio. The image will be centered and displayed as large as 
possible depending on the source type and projector model: 
A video image or 4:3 graphic image is enlarged to fill the screen height, centered 
between black side bars. 
A 5:4 graphic image is enlarged to fill the screen height and is centered between black 
side bars.
An anamorphic (16:9) image fills the whole screen.
• Full  Size:  Select Full Size to use all pixels for displaying the image, regardless of source or 
original aspect ratio. Incoming source material having a different aspect ratio than the 
projector will be stretched to fill the display. 
• Full  Width:  Select Full Width to fill the projector’s display from left-to-right without 
changing the original aspect ratio of the image. Depending on the source, data at the top 
and bottom may be discarded (cropped), or the display may have black borders at the top 
and bottom (called “letterbox”). 
• Full  Height:  Select Full Height to fill the display from top-to-bottom. Depending on the 
source, this may create borders. 
• Anamorphic: Select Anamorphic to display an anamorphic image in its native 16:9 aspect 
ratio. The image will fill the whole screen.
Size: “Size” controls both the image width and height in tandem, maintaining the current 
aspect ratio (proportion) of the displayed signal data. 
Height: “Height” adjusts the image height while keeping the width constant. Use this setting 
to change the aspect ratio of the display. 
Pixel Tracking: Steady flickering or several soft vertical stripes or bands across the entire 
image indicates poor pixel tracking. Proper pixel tracking helps ensure that the image quality 
is consistent across the screen, that aspect ratio is maintained, and that pixel phase can be 
optimized (see below). Tracking determines the frequency of the pixel sampling clock, 
indicated by the number of incoming pixels per line, so that all pixels generated by a 
particular source are sampled. 
By default, the projector samples at the correct frequency for most sources. 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. Adjust the slidebar until the vertical 
stripes broaden to the point where one large stripe fills the image. If the image still exhibits 
some shimmer or noise, adjust Pixel Phase (described below).
