How does the GigaVideo 580™ work?
It's really simple! The set consists of a transmitter and a receiver. Connect the transmitter to your A/V equipment (e.g. Satellite or DVD). Then connect the receiver to your second TV. Via the infrared extender, you can also continue to operate A/V equipment that is set up in a different room (or in a closed cupboard) with your own remote control.

Check the following:
The flat dishes are for image en sound (2.4 GHz or 5.8GHz); the set-top aerials for the infrared backward channel (433 MHz). It is important that the flat dishes are well directed towards each other for optimal result.
Your video transmitter set can send analogue stereo signals, such as for example Dolby Surround. Digital systems such as for example Dolby 5.1 or Dolby Digital cannot be sent.
(e.g. for NVIDIA GeForce 5200 video cards)
Go to the settings of the graphics card and set the TV as primary monitor.
Yes. However, the signal will be the same on all receivers.
You can use a maximum of 2 transmitters with one or more receivers. You can use 4 different channels. The infrared return channel cannot be set separately and will work with the entire system. Transmitters and receivers of GigaVideo580 / 570 are not compatible with transmitters and receivers that operate on a 2.4GHz frequency band.
No, WiFi uses the 2.4Ghz frequency band. The GigaVideo570/580 uses the 5.8GHz frequency band. In cases where a 2.4GHz video transmitter experiences interference from for instance a WiFi network, the GigaVideo570/580 can be the right solution.
Dolby Surround and Dolby Pro Logic use the Stereo channel of the GigaVideo. Digital systems (e.g. Dolby Digital/AC3 or Dolby 5.1) cannot be transmitted wirelessly. Many PCs give you the option to convert digital systems to Dolby Pro Logic.
No, it is only possible to send a composite video signal (CVBS). rn rn
Yes you can, as long as your beamer has a composite Video In (CVBS, yellow RCA plug or SCART)
Yes, you can. Your PC needs an extra Video In.
Yes, in that case you do not connect the video signal. This option is often used to transmit e.g. MP3 from the PC to the stereo (ideal in combination with the MouseRemote, to control your PC).
Yes, every camera with CVBS / PAL output-signal can be used for this purpose (f.i. your Camcorder)

The infrared return channel is used to control equipment on the transmitter end from the receiver end. This means you can watch TV on a second monitor without having to use extra wires. You can use the decoder as a TV tuner. By using the remote control of the decoder with the receiver, you can change the channels on the decoder.
(e.g. for NVIDIA GeForce 5200 video cards)
Go to the settings of the graphics card and set the TV as primary monitor.
The video transmitter is receiving the wrong signal. Check whether you have connected a CVBS video signal to the video transmitter instead of S-VHS. Check whether your PC is set to PAL instead of NTSC or SECAM.
Your video transmitter set can send analogue stereo signals, such as for example Dolby Surround. Digital systems such as for example Dolby 5.1 or Dolby Digital cannot be sent.
The audio signal offered is probably too weak. Make sure the audio port of your PC is fully open.
If this is the case, you can check if the set is working properly. This can be done by using for instance a VCR or DVD-player as source instead of the PC. If the sound is still weak, the set might not be working properly. If the sound is all right, the signal offered by your PC is not correct.
Dolby Surround and Dolby Pro Logic use the Stereo channel of the GigaVideo. Digital systems (e.g. Dolby Digital/AC3 or Dolby 5.1) cannot be transmitted wirelessly. Many PCs give you the option to convert digital systems to Dolby Pro Logic.
