Component Video Output:
Divides the video signal into
three elements: luminance, which represents
brightness in the image, and separate red and blue
signals (expressed as either Y R-Y B-Y or Y Pb Pr).
Component video is superior to both composite and
S-video because it provides improved color purity,
superior color detail, and reduces NTSC artifacts.
This is a three-connector output from a video source
(such as a DVD player), or input on a Television.
Each signal is supplied on a separate colored RCA
cable for easy connection. |
|
|
S-Video:
S-Video keeps luminance (Y) (black and white) and
chrominance (C) (color) signals separate to take full
advantage of high resolution sources like: DBS satellite,
DVD & S-VHS. Better than a composite video connection, not
as good as component. |
|
Frame Synchronizer:
A Frame Synchronizer removes jitter from an
incoming analog source signal so your copies can appear
better-looking than the original. |

SAP:
SAP (Second Audio Program)
decodes any second language translation that may be part

of programming on a single DF-480 video tape. (21
hours/DF-420, 15 hours/DF-300) |
