Else structure based on which HDMI output has active video In contrast the video EDID is selected in the input memory EDID Setup on a per input memory basis and the audio EDID is globally selected based on which HDMI output has active video The net effect of this method is that the video EDID capability can be passed back from one of the HDMI outputs or user defined The audio EDID capability can be passed back from the same HDMI output the other HDMI output or user defined NOTE By default Output 1 has both video and audio enabled and Output 2 has only video enabled So the default configuration for a system with an AVR and a projector is that the AVR is connected to Output 1 and the projector is connected to Output 2 Examples below illustrate how to change this if desired The If Conditional The first parameter on each command line can be an Always clause an If conditional or an Else clause If there is more than one line the last line will always contain an Else clause The Always or Else clauses do not have conditionals There are two options for an If conditional e If Output 1 is enabled for video output e If Output 2 is enabled for video output The then Clause The second parameter is the then clause If the If conditional is true the Then clause is used otherwise control is passed to the next command line The options are e User De

8. Video Configuration Section 5 Video Configuration By default the output is set to Auto 2 1 The selection Auto 2 1 means the Radiance automatically reads the video EDID for the devices connected to both outputs giving priority to Output 2 and automatically selects the appropriate output resolution That is if an active device is connected to output 2 the EDID from that device is read to determine the optimal video output resolution and the Radiance automatically selects the specified resolution If no device is connected to output 2 or the device connected to output 2 does not respond the Radiance uses the EDID from the device connected to Output 1 and sets the output resolution appropriately For Auto modes the output vertical rate is selected based on the input vertical rate For example input formats 48060 720p60 1080160 automatically select a vertical output rate of 60 Hertz Input formats 576i50 720p50 and 1080i50 automatically select a vertical output rate of 50 Hz For a 1080p24 input format a 24 Hz output vertical rate is selected if the display supports a 24 Hz output vertical rate otherwise a 60 Hz rate is selected For displays that do not support EDID the output mode must be selected using the commands shown below Video Output Setup Menu The Video Output Select Menu is used to select output settings Mode CMS and Style based on the input number input memory and input video mode The Video Output
