Selecting progressive scan
1
The progressive scan capability provides the highest resolution pictures with less flicker and line structure.
If you are using the Component video sockets, but are connecting the unit to a standard (analog) television, set
PROGRESSIVE to Off.
If you are using the Component video sockets for connection to a TV or monitor that is compatible with a progressive
scan signal, set PROGRESSIVE to On.
Note: This unit supports the progressive scan only for NTSC DVDs.

Preparation:
• Connect to a TV equipped with component sockets.
• Turn ON the TV and set it to the corresponding video input
mode.
• Set the VIDEO OUTPUT selector switch on the rear panel
to COMPONENT position.
• Press DVD/FM/AM selector to select the DVD mode.
Notes:
• JPEG CDs can not be play back with the progressive scan-
ning mode.
• Some discs may not be played back with the progressive scan-
ning mode correctly because of the disc characteristics or re-
cording condition.
• If your TV does not accept the progressive scan format, the
picture will appear scrambled if you select progressive scan
output from the unit. In such a case, select PROGRESSIVE
scan Off.
There are two types of source content in pictures
recorded in DVD video discs: film content (pictures
recorded from films at 24 frames per second) and
video content (video signals recorded at 30 frames per
second).
When the unit plays back a film source material,
uninterlaced
progressive output signals are created using the origi-
nal information. When a video content is played back,
the unit interleaves lines between the interlaced lines
on each to create the interpolated picture and outputs
as the progressive signal.
■ To select PROGRESSIVE scan Off
On the step 1 above, select “PRO. OFF”.
