    Color Space: Select Color Space from the Service menu to choose the color space of 
    the source signal for HDMI, RGB, and component connections.
     The default setting, Auto, functions as follows:
    HDMI: If the Auxiliary Video Information (AVI) infoframe contains color space and/or 
    range data, the DHD Controller uses that information. Otherwise, for RGB sources, 
    the DHD Controller uses the RGB-Video color space. For component SDTV and 
    EDTV resolutions, REC601 is used. For other component video resolutions, 
    REC709 is used.
    RGB: If Hsync or Vsync signals are present, the DHD Controller uses the RGB-PC 
    color space. Otherwise, REC601 is used for SDTV and EDTV sources, and REC709 
    for all other sources.
    Component: For SDTV and EDTV resolutions, the DHD Controller uses the 
    REC601 color space. For all other resolutions, REC709 is used.
    In most cases, the Auto setting determines the correct color space to use. If it does not, 
    you can force the DHD Controller to use a specific color space. Choose one of the 
    following:
    REC709 sets the color space matrix to that defined in ITU-R BT.709.
    REC601 sets the color space matrix to that defined in ITU-R BT.601.
    RGB-PC uses RGB color space and sets black at 0,0,0 RGB and white at 
    255,255,255 RGB, assuming an 8-bit image.
    RGB-Video uses RGB color space and sets black at 16,16,16 RGB and white at 
    235,235,235, assuming an 8-bit image, to correspond to the luminance values defined 
    in digital component standards.
    Miscellaneous: Select Miscellaneous from the Service menu to set the following options: 
     Language: Select Language from the Miscellaneous menu and press the up- or 
    down-arrows to select the OSD Language (English, Français, Deutsch, Italiano, 
    Español, Svenska,  (Simplified Chinese),   (Traditional Chinese), 
    Português,  (Russian),  (Japanese) or  (Korean). 
    SD Timer: Select OSD Timer from the Miscellaneous menu to set the OSD Timer, 
    which controls how long the menus remain on-screen after selecting them. Select from 
    5 to 60 seconds, in one-second increments. Or, set the timer to 0 (disabled) if you want 
    the menus to remain on-screen indefinitely. 
    SD Messages: When you select a new aspect ratio, input source or memory preset, 
    the DHD Controller briefly displays an on-screen message confirming your new 
    selection. To prevent the display of these messages, select OSD Messages from the 
    Miscellaneous menu to and set it to Off. 
    Screen Color: Select Blank Screen Color from the Miscellaneous menu to 
    select the color that appears when no incoming signal is present. The range is from 0 
    to 255 inclusive for each color component (red, green and blue). 
    Sidebar Color: Select Sidebar Color from the Miscellaneous menu to change the 
    color of the inactive image area. The range is from 0 to 255 inclusive for each color 
    component (red, green and blue). The inactive image area is on either side of the active 
    image area when using the 4:3 aspect ratio.
     Film Mode: Use Film Mode to smooth out moving images from interlaced, 
    standard-definition (SD) sources. In most cases, the DHD Controller detects the proper 
    “pull-down” rate and vertical frequency. However, if your source is jittery and/or tearing 
    you may want to enable Film Mode to ensure stable processing for that source.

    sampling Error) Correction: Some DVD players use MPEG 
    decoders that do not correctly “upsample” the 4:2:0 format chroma information on the 
    DVD to the 4:2:2 or 4:4:4 format required by the video encoder of the display device.
    This so-called “chroma bug” sometimes causes streaky or spiky horizontal lines 
    running through the chroma channel. It is most noticeable in static, interlaced scenes 
    and on diagonal edges (especially red ones). Set CUE to On to correct this issue. 
     Remote Code: Select Remote Code from the Miscellaneous menu to set the infrared 
    (IR) code set to which the DHD Controller will respond. By default, it is set to 17. You 
    can change this setting if either:
     Another device in the theater (a DVD player, for example) is responding to 
    commands from the DHD Controller remote control (Figure 2-6) in ways that are 
    unpredictable or undesirable.
     You have multiple DHD Controllers and want to control them independently, as 
    opposed to broadcasting commands from a single remote to all of them. In this 
    scenario, you can use multiple remotes programmed to use different IR codes. Or, 
    you can use a single remote and change the IR code as needed to address a 
    specific DHD Controller.
    When you change a remote code on the DHD Controller, you must re-program the 
    DHD Controller remote control to send that same code. To do this:
    1. Press and hold the LIGHT button on the 
    remote control for approximately three 
    seconds, or until the LED on the remote lights 
    solid red. 
    2. Enter a new two-digit code between 00 and 31 
    inclusive. Include a leading zero for single-digit 
    codes; for example, enter 9 as “09.”
    3. The LED turns off to confirm the code change. If you enter an invalid code, the LED 
    flashes for three or four seconds. Try again, entering a valid code.Use the serial command REMOTECODE [0 ... 31] to change 
    the IR code to which the controller will respond (refer to 
    Miscellaneous Commands on page 63). Then, change the code 
    sent by the remote to match as described below.

    Sync Threshold: Select Sync Threshold to adjust the threshold at which negative pulses 
    on the component video green/luma channel are interpreted to be sync pulses.
    Sync Threshold adjustment is occasionally necessary when a DVD player or HDTV source 
    signal drops “below black” (for example, during scenes with explosions or when subtitles 
    are present) and causes the display to temporarily lose sync. If the sync level from the 
    source is persistently too low, the display device won’t sync with the source at all. 
    The range is from 0 (approximately 60 millivolts (mV)) to 15 (approximately 300mV). 
    HDMI: Select HDMI from the Service menu to set the following options affecting 
    communication between HDMI sources, the DHD Controller and the V-50HD/V-63HD. 
     HDMI EDID Extension: Extended display identification data (EDID) is a data structure 
    provided by a display device to describe its capabilities to a graphics card. It is what 
    enables a modern personal computer to know what kind of monitor is connected. 
    Some modern display devices provide more information via EDID than others, in the 
    form of “extensions.” Some computer graphics cards do recognize or properly interpret 
    this extended EDID information. 
    Select HDMI EDID Extension from the HDMI menu to specify whether or not the EDID 
    extensions from the display device are passed through to the sources connected to the 
    HDMI 1, HDMI 2, HDMI 3 or HDMI 4 inputs. By default, the extensions are on. Change 
    these settings only if HDMI EDID incompatibility issues arise.
    Select Audio Format from the HDMI menu to choose an option for 
    routing the audio signal from an HDMI source. With the V-50HD/V-63HD, the 
    recommended setting is HDMI Out (Audio Only). (This is also the default setting.)
    This control chooses whether or not the DHD Controller responds to HDMI CEC 
    control messages from a disc player, set-top box or other HDMI source. It also enables 
    or disables CEC communication between the DHD Controller and display. 
    The default (and recommended) setting is On. For more information about CEC, refer 
    to Using HDMI CEC Messages on page 68. 
     HPD Toggle Rejection: Select HPD Toggle Rejection from the HDMI menu to specify 
    whether or not the DHD Controller ignores extraneous Hot Plug Detect (HPD) signal 
    state changes from a downstream HDMI device (third-party display or audio/video 
    receiver). 
    The default setting is Off. Set it to On when troubleshooting compatibility issues or to 
    reduce the amount of time needed to lock to an incoming signal. Do not set CEC to “Off” unless specifically instructed to do 
    so by Runco Technical Support. If you do, the system will not 
    work properly.
    The DHD Controller does not transmit HDMI CEC control 
    messages from the “HDMI Audio Out” connector, regardless of the 
    CEC setting.
