Input and Output Settings
Since the V-440HD is capable of handling video input and output
with entirely different formats, it may be necessary to make
adjustments for the differences in picture quality and angle of view
in each video format. To match the device used for inputting video
to the V-440HD to the device receiving the output from the V-
440HD, make the input and output settings.
Selecting the Output Format
Making the Output Settings
The output settings are made from the menu. The menu is displayed
in the SD video output from the SD PREVIEW OUT connector.
* For more on the menus, refer to Menu Operations (p. 25).
* To rapidly get to the output settings menu, hold down the MENU
button and press one of the OUTPUT FORMAT buttons.
Press an OUTPUT FORMAT button to select the format for the video
output from the HD OUT connectors (p. 19) or RGB OUT connectors
(p. 19). The selected button lights up.

* The formats shown above are the default factory settings. You can also
select output formats other than these. For more details, refer to
About the Final Output Format (p. 48).
Start with the Output Settings
When making these settings, start by making the output
settings first. Setting the output after making the input settings
will result in discrepancies in the color and angle of view if the
input video is switched to a format other than those used in the
output settings.
About Delayed Output
Note that, due to the process of up-converting and downconverting
processes, the use of multiple formats with the V-
440HD will result in a lag of several frames.

About the Output Format
The V-440HD handles output in the following formats
[HD OUT]
The HD output formats feature frame rate settings of 60 and 50. The
frame rate used in the United States and Japan (NTSC regions) is 60;
in Europe (PAL regions), the frame rate is 50. The frame rate can be
switched using the procedure described on p. 42.
60 - NTSC 50 - PAL
1080/60i 1080/50i
720/60p 720/50p
480/60p 576/50p
480/60i 576/50i
[RGB OUT]
1280x1024/60 1024x768/60 640x480/75

1280x768/75 800x600/75
1280x768/60 800x600/60
* Units: [horizontal (pixels) x vertical (lines) / frame rate (Hertz)].
About NTSC and PAL SD Output
Either NTSC or PAL can be selected for the SD section's input and
output. For instructions on making the settings, refer to Switching
Between NTSC and PAL (p. 42). Additionally, the HD OUT output
format frame rate is determined by the format set here.
These delays may cause discrepancies in the timing of the
external audio and the video processed by the V-440HD. In
such a case you might use an audio delay line in order to
synchronize the video and audio.
