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 Input A ports, respectively.
The projector also supports digital video (SDTV, HDTV) and various monitor display formats. Digital
video is accepted by the HDMI port and the Input A port (in component video format). The Input B
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.
