Video on a DVD discs may be either video
material (originally shot on video) or film
material (originally shot on film). Video
material has a frame rate of 30 frames/sec.
(NTSC), compared with 24 frames/sec. for
film. This player converts film material to 60
frames/sec. (in progressive scan mode).
PureCinema adjusts the picture so that it
matches more closely the picture quality of
a cinema screen.
You can see whether video on a DVD disc is
film or video material by displaying the video
transmission rate (see page 17). If a hash
mark (#) appears next to the transmission
rate display, it is film material.
