INTRODUCTION General Description Congratulations on your purchase of the VHD-4403 ULTRA! This processor is designed to work with either a CRT projector or a fixed-pixel device (DLP, Plasma, etc.), and will provide full aspect ratio con- trol as well as greatly enhanced picture quality. For example, DLP projectors were not initially designed to be used on wide aspect-ratio screens (16:9 or 1.85:1). The VHD-4403 ULTRA, however, expands the use of the DLP projector to be able to accommodate Letterb

QUICK SET-UP GUIDE Overall Functional Description The VHD-4403 ULTRA’s purpose is twofold. First, it provides aspect ratio control and can do so on either a WIDESCREEN or a standard 4:3 screen. Second, it pro- vides a clean, progressive signal to the projector. The processing the VHD-4403 ULTRA uses is called SCALING. Scaling is simply a way of taking a signal, ‘digitizing’ it, then converting it to any of a number of resolu- tions. It is by manipulating the algorithms of the scaling process th

MENU DESCRIPTION AND NAVIGATION • SHARPNESS This controls the ‘high-frequency’ detail of the image. The more sharpness is increased, the more detail is added into the picture. However, if it is increased too much, it will also increase ‘noise’ in the picture as well as other types of artifacts. This may be set to personal preference; midrange is factory-preset. • LUMA ENHANCE This is similar to the sharpness control, but it does not boost the frequencies all over the picture. Instead, this is mo

ASPECT RATIOS First, the Basics An ‘aspect ratio’ is simply the ratio of the width vs. the height of the screen. For example, the current aspect ratio standard is 4:3 (or 1.33:1), where the image is 4 units wide and 3 units tall. 3 units tall 4 units wide All of our ‘regular’ televisions are this aspect ratio. You have probably noticed that occasionally you’ll watch a movie that does not fill the screen vertically. This is because the movie was filmed in WIDESCREEN (letterbox), and the result is
