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 original 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.

•The unit recognizes the picture source (film or video) of the current disc according to the disc information.
