On video connection

By using S-video or component video cord, you can get a better picture quality—in the order: composite < S-video < component.

To enjoy the progressive video picture, connect the TV compatible with the progressive video input using component video cord, then change the scanning mode correctly (see “Changing the Scanning Mode” on page 17). You can enjoy the progressive scanning mode only when the color system of your TV is NTSC (see “To select the color system” on page 9).
