Progressive Scan Video provides the highest quality pictures with less flickering.

If you are using the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT/ PRO- GRESSIVE SCAN, but are connecting the recorder to a standard (analog) television, set Progressive Scan to [OFF].

If you are using the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT/ PRO- GRESSIVE SCAN for connection to a TV or monitor that is compatible with a progressive scan signal, set Progressive Scan to [ON].
