This setup is necessary only when the HDMI, the COMPONENT or the D1/D2 terminals are connected to a TV (or monitor) compatible with progressive-scan.

Within Progressive Mode, there are two settings: Auto and Video. Use the left and right cursor buttons to select these choices, and press the ENTER button. Typically, the Auto setting should be used but in the case of jagged or blurred playback of a DVD, you may want to select the Video option.

A note on progressive-scan

The video on DVD discs may be either originally shot on video or film. Video material has a frame rate of 30 fps (NTSC) while film is at 24 frames per second. In progressive-scan mode, film material is converted to 60 frames per second, and the player adjust the picture match the quality from a cinema screen. As mentioned above, Auto is the usual setting for Progressive Mode, but Video may be used if the picture appears jagged.

DCDi

[VIDEO q Progressive Setting q DCDi]

This setup is necessary only when the HDMI, the COMPONENT or the D1/D2 terminals are connected to a TV (or monitor) compatible with progressive-scan.

The DCDi circuit, which smoothes edges in the process of converting images from DVD discs into progressive-scan images and promises a natural image projection, has three settings: ON, OFF and AUTO. Use the left and right cursor buttons to select these choices, and press the ENTER button.

The DCDi circuit is typically effective for video material.

Try setting the DCDi circuit to ON when diagonal lines appear jagged on playing back video material through progressive scan. With film material also, there are occasions when the ON setting produces better images in terms of smoothness and depth.

At the AUTO setting, the DCDi circuit detects whether the source is video or film and switches itself between ON and OFF accordingly. Please note, however, that this auto switching does not always work as expected depending on discs.
