Tip to obtain a higher quality picture
Occasionally, some picture noise not usually visible during a normal broadcast may appear on the TV screen while playing a DVD video because the high resolution pictures on these discs include a lot of information. While the amount of noise depends on the TV you use, you should generally adjust the TV to reduce sharpness when viewing DVD videos.
