resulting in smoother, more natural-looking objects. AntiAliasing can be applied using different sample patterns
and sample points such as 2X or 4X. Moving this slider
to the right increases sampling to provide the most
realistic 3D image.
Select the Application Preference checkbox for highquality images, with a negligible reduction in the
application’s performance.
Deselect the Application Preference checkbox to
customize the anti-aliasing.

Anisotropic filtering uses a texture filtering technique
that blends multiple texture samples together. The
number of samples taken when anisotropic filtering is
performed can vary . By moving this slider to the right, as
the number of samples taken increases, the quality of
the final image increases significantly. 16X provides
extremely detailed, crisp-looking images as a result of
the largest number of texture samples possible.
Selecting the Application Preference checkbox will
result in high-quality images, with a negligible reduction
in the application’s performance.

Choose the texture quality of the mipmaps the
application will use. Mipmaps are a collection of different
sized textures of the same image. As the user moves
closer to a 3D object the image quality should increase,
requiring a higher quality texture of the same image. The
base mipmap is the highest quality texture, and all
subsequent mipmaps are smaller sized textures of the
same image. Moving the slider to the right selects a
higher quality base mipmap, delivering the highest
quality application experience. Moving the slider to the
left selects a lower quality mipmap, delivering the
highest application performance.

Hardware crashes may occur when a hardware device and the
corresponding software device driver are no longer able to communicate
with each other. VPU Recover enables the ATI display driver to detect
when the graphics card is no longer able to respond to display driver
commands. When this situation arises, the display driver will reset the
graphics card. Depending on the current state of the system when VPU
Recover is activated, applications that are running may be able to fully
recover from this reset. In other cases, running applications may be closed,
and the user will be returned to the Windows® desktop.

Using TV Out
View your PC’s display on a TV
The RADEON™ X300 Series has TV Out capability. You can attach your
card to a TV and monitor at the same time. Or you can connect it to your
VCR and record your monitor’s display.
TV display is ideal for playing games, giving presentations, watching
movies, and browsing the Internet. The following tips will help you get the
most out of your TV Out feature.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
for European Customers
Some PC monitors in Europe cannot be used
simultaneously with TV display. When you enable TV display
in Europe, the refresh rate for the monitor and TV is set to
50Hz. Some monitors may not support this refresh rate and
could be damaged.
• Please check the documentation supplied with your
monitor to see if your monitor supports a refresh rate of
50Hz.
If your monitor does not support 50 Hz (or if you are
not sure), then turn off your monitor before turning
on your PC when using your TV as a display.
For information on disabling TV display, see How To
Enable/Disable The TV Display.
Some TVs in Europe may use a SCART conn ection. If
you use SCART, please read Using SCART
Connectors for European TVs before attempting to
connect your PC to your European TV.

Starting Windows® with TV Display Enabled
The TV screen may become scrambled during the initial Windows® logo
display. This distortion is only a temporary effect, and your screen will be
restored within a few seconds.
During start up, your RADEON™ X300 Series will go through a sequence
of mode settings, during which your TV display will remain blank. This
process takes only a few seconds and programs the TV display.

A TV cannot be left connected to the card if two analog monitors are
connected, even if the TV is off and not enabled in the software.
An analog monitor connected to the DVI-I connector cannot be left
connected to the card when TV out is enabled. In both cases, your graphics
card will become overloaded, resulting in a dim image on all devices.
Using a Monitor vs. Using TV Display
Using your TV for your computer’s display can be useful, however, the
display on your monitor may change or looked squashed. This distortion
occurs because the display adjusts to fit the dimensions of your TV. To
correct the monitor’s display, use the monitor’s control buttons to adjust its
display size and position.
Some single-frequency monitors may not work with TV display enabled. If
you experience problems when TV display is enabled, disable TV display
to restore your monitor’s display.
Adjusting Monitor Display
The size of the display on your monitor may become smaller and not
perfectly centered when you have TV display enabled. These effects are
caused by the changes the graphics card is required to make in order to
display your desktop properly on a TV.
Page 43

Properties page (accessible by clicking on the Monitor button on the ATI
Displays tab) to adjust the display on your monitor only. Click the TV
button to adjust the TV display only.
Viewing Text on a TV
A TV is designed primarily to show moving images. The large dot pitch of
a TV will yield poor quality static images. The small text sizes commonly
used for PC desktops can appear blurred or unclear on a TV. You can
compensate for this degradation by using larger fonts.

Using TV Display Alone
If you plan to move your computer to a place where you are using TV
display only, make sure that you have the TV display feature enabled prior
to removing the monitor.
The maximum display resolution for TV is 1024x768. Choosing a
resolution higher than this will cause the TV display to disappear if it is the
only display device.
Using Games and Applications
Some older games and applications may program your RADEON™ X300
Series directly to run under a specific display mode. This may cause your
TV display to turn off automatically or become scrambled (your PC
monitor or portable LCD display will not be affected). Your TV display
will be restored once you exit the game or if you restart your computer.
