Selecting Progressive Scan (480p or Interlaced 480i) Playback
• If your TV is compatible with progressive scanning (480p), connect the TV to the Component Video Output jacks of the DVD
player and set the INTERLACE/PROGRESSIVE SCAN SELECTOR on the back of the DVD player to PROGRESSIVE.
Next, set your TV to the progressive scan mode.
• If your TV is not compatible with progressive scan, set the INTERLACE/PROGRESSIVE SCAN SELECTOR to INTER-
LACE.
• Use a commercially available adaptor if the video input jacks of your TVs or monitors are the BNC type.
What is Progressive Scanning?
• Unlike conventional interlace scanning, the progressive scan system provides less flickering and images in higher resolution
than that of traditional (480i) television signals.
• When PROGRESSIVE is selected, no video signal will be output from the VIDEO OUT, or S-VIDEO OUT jack.
