Component Video

Compared to a standard interlaced TV picture, a progressive scan TV is capable of stable, flicker- free images.

Set only if you connected the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT to a progressive scan-compatible TV or monitor.

Make changes to the Component Video setting in the Setup screen Video 1 menu.

•Progressive – Use this setting with TVs and monitors that have progressive scan component video inputs. Check the TV’s instruction manual if you are not sure about this.

•Interlace – (default setting) use this setting with regular TVs that are not compatible with progressive scan. Check the TV’s instruction manual if you are not sure about this.

Tip

If this player is set to output progressive-scan video, it’s possible that the picture will appear stretched when playing discs recorded in 4:3 format. This happens when the TV’s aspect ratio is set ‘Full’. To see the picture in its correct aspect ratio, change the TV setting to ‘Normal’.

If your TV doesn’t have settings to change the aspect ratio of the picture, set this player to 16:9(Compressed).

Note

If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a progressive scan signal and choose one of the progressive scan settings, you will not be able to see any picture at all. With your TV connected using either the composite or S-Video terminals, choose the Interlace setting in the Component Video menu.
