If your television is a high-definition or “digital ready” television, you may take advantage of the recorder’s progressive scan output for the highest video resolution possible. If your TV does not accept the Progressive Scan format, the picture will appear scrambled if you try Progressive Scan on the recorder.

RH188S/RH199S: Set the [Progressive Scan] option to [ON] on the setup menu for progressive signal, see page 18. RH188HS/RH199HS/RH200MHS: Set the resolution to 576p using RESOLUTION button for progressive signal.

Note:

Progressive scan does not work with the analog video connections (yellow VIDEO OUT jack) or S-VIDEO connection.

Caution (RH188S/RH199S only)

Once the setting for Progressive Scan output is entered, an image will only be visible on a Progressive Scan compatible TV or monitor. If you set Progressive Scan to [ON] in error, you must reset the recorder. First, remove the disc in the recorder. Next, press STOP (x) and hold it for five seconds before releasing it. The video output will be restored to the standard setting, and a picture will once again be visible on a conventional analog TV or monitor.

Caution (RH188HS/RH199HS/RH200MHS only) If the resolution is set to 720p or 1080i, the VIDEO OUT, S-VIDEO OUT and COMPONENT VIDEO OUT connections are not available.
