ixed pixel displays, such as DLP, LCD
F
and Plasma displays, have come of
age for home theater applications. Their
compatibility with high-resolution video
sources has made these devices a computer
industry standard for years. Also for years,
the challenge of matching their high quality
displays with standard video signals from
DVD or VHS systems has gone unanswered.
Once again, Runco has met this latest chal-
lenge with its all-new, proprietary VIVIX™
Pixel-for-Pixel™ technology. VIVIX is the
key to turning an otherwise good fixed-pixel
device into a high quality video display suit-
able for the home theater enthusiast. This
technology matches the output resolution,
sync types and output format, to most
efficiently drive the display unit, preventing
‘double scaling’, which can cause a loss of
resolution, or other unwanted artifacts
associated with other processors.
FEATURES
• Pixel-for-Pixel output matched for virtually any fixed-pixel
display
• Film to video (3:2 pulldown) detection
• Time base correction for unstable sources such as VCR’s
• Aspect ratio control for 16:9 or 4:3 screens
• Fully RS-232 or IR Controllable
• Output can be configured for any sync polarity as well as
RGB or Component outputs
OUTPUT RESOLUTIONS:
PFP-7: 854 x 480 1280 x 720 720p
800 x 600 1280 x 768
1024 x 768 480p
1024 x 1024 540p
600p
PFP-11: 854 x 480
• Image shift for flexibility in placement
• Blanking for eliminating the image from being displayed
on screen borders.
• Grey ‘Side bars’ to reduce or eliminate 4:3 burns on
16:9 plasmas or CRT-based Rear Projection televisions
• Pass-through available for high-resolution sources
such as DTV decoders or computers
• 10 bit processing

In addition to the VIVIX processing, the
PFP-7 and PFP-11 have other features that
no other processor has, including image
shift and blanking capabilities that allow the
image to fit perfectly on the screen. For pro-
jectors that do not have lens shift capability,
the image shift feature adds flexibility to
the projector’s installation without having
to introduce keystone effects in the image.
And to protect 4:3 image burns on plasmas
or CRT-based Rear Projection televisions,
grey side-bars are provided to greatly reduce
or eliminate the possibility of causing irrepa-
rable damage to the display.
Runco’s new PFP-7 and PFP-11 are the
ultimate solution for the Home Theater
enthusiast who wants to get the absolute
best performance AND flexibility from their
fixed-pixel display.
