RangerG Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Is there any difference between the video quality of monitor out vs. aux. video out? I just tested both on a 1702 monitor and I think the monitor out is slightly better, but they are very close. However, the aux video out is easier to set-up in that it one cord (the other way I need two, with the aux video out audio only). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 (edited) Even thought there should be no difference since they share the same wiring inside, the MONITOR port (RCA port for video output only) does provide slightly better video than the AUXILLARY port (DIN connector that provides video and audio) and I use both ports (two cables) with my setup.... MONITOR for video output and AUXILLARY for audio output. Probably the loss of video quality using the AUXILLARY port is due to the quality of the DIN Monitor Cable used. Also, IIRC, the AUXILLARY port taps into the MONITOR port for video, so that could explain the loss of quality.

RangerG Posted September 28, 2015 Author Share Posted September 28, 2015 That is so interesting, that is exactly what I saw, it is slightly better through the monitor port (a little crisper). My eyes were not deceiving me, thanks NIAD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rey Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Also the way the video at the Din port is wired from the VDP can allow for some interference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
