USER PREFERENCES
YUV (only available on model DVD 4620): Transmission of video pictures
with three wires. The colour signals are transferred with a high frequency range.
YUV (Component Video) is used for TVs, computer monitors and projectors
that support three video inputs, each for a colour channel (red, green and blue).
RGB (over SCART): Electrical transmission possibility for video pictures, i.e. it
is a picture signal, which is splintered according to the primary colours of the
TV (red, green and blue).
Video mode (only available on model DVD 4620)
If you are using the component video output, you can change the video mode
setting to enable the Interlace or the Progressive-Scan mode. Do not set to P-
Scan if you are not sure that your TV supports Progressive-Scan.
P-Scan: Progressive-Scan is a method of scanning a complete video frame on
each pass, unlike normal “interlaced” TVs that require two passes to scan each
frame. Progressive-Scan results in a slightly brighter, more stable and flicker
free picture.
Interlace: It’s a process in which the picture is split into two fields by sending
all the odd numbered lines to field one and all the even numbered lines to field
two. This allows a whole picture to be produced in two very fast scans.
P-Scan mode (only available on model DVD 4620)
Here, you can determine the pulldown mode for the disc you would like to play
in the Progressive-Scan mode.
Auto: This option detects the type of material on the disc being played (film or
video) and switches automatically to the required Progressive-Scan mode. This
mode is suitable for playing discs containing both film and video material.
Film: Select this option for Progressive-Scan with 3:2 pulldown. In this mode
the picture will be scanned in the rhythm 3:2, i. e. the first picture will be repeat-
ed three times, the following picture only two times and so on. This mode is best
suited for playing discs containing film material or video material recorded with
the Progressive-Scan method.
Video: Select this option for Progressive-Scan with 2:2 pulldown. In this mode
the picture will be scanned in the rhythm 2:2, i. e. the first picture will be repeat-
ed two times, the following picture also two times. This mode is best suited for
playing discs containing video material.
Note:
• This setting is only possible, if the Video output is set to “YUV”. This is
because all Progressive-Scan TVs require component video inputs.
• If you select “P-Scan”, a warning hint will be displayed on the screen inform-
ing you that incorrectly setting this item can corrupt the picture. If the picture
becomes distorted or unusable, wait a few seconds and the setting will be
restored to its previous value. Follow the instructions on the screen.
Note:
This setting is only possible if you have activated “Progressive-Scan” in the
video mode menu.
Note:
If you select “YUV”, on the screen
will be displayed a warning hint
informing you that incorrectly setting
this item can corrupt the picture. If the
picture becomes distorted or unus-
able, wait a few seconds and the set-
ting will be restored to its previous
value. Follow the instructions on the
screen.
