How do I connect my 10HT to an external scaler?
Most scalers have a VGA output, and require a VGA->5RCA cable (see the cables section, 2.3). Some scalers may have RCA outputs or BNC outputs. In those cases, you’ll want either RCA->RCA cables or BNC->RCA cables. Make sure that if you use separate cables rather than tied-together “component” cables that all the cables are the same length (to within an inch or so). Scalers usually have selections for multiple output resolutions and video types. If possible, have the scaler output an HDTV-like output, either RGB or YPbPr, preferably 720p, though 1080i is also acceptable if the scaler can produce it. The difficulty with computer-like resolutions like 1024×768 is that the 10HT will only recognize them as computer signals, and will lock into 4×3 mode. The one exception to this is 640×480 (really, anythingx480) at 60Hz, which the 10HT will recognize as either computer or DTV GBR, and in DTV GBR mode, you get aspect control. Unfortunately, the timings for computer signals at 640×480 are not
