To enjoy progressive video

≥Connect to a progressive output compatible television.

1 Set “Video Output” to “Off” (➜ page 26, “HDMI” tab).

2 Set “Video Output Mode” to “480p”, and then follow the instructions on the menu screen (➜ page 23, Picture Menu).

≥All Panasonic televisions that have 480p input connectors are compatible. Consult the manufacturer if you have another brand of television.

Audio

≥Using the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals

The COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals provides a purer picture than the S-VIDEO OUT terminal. These terminals can be used for either interlaced or progressive output. Connection using these terminals outputs the color difference signals (PB/PR) and luminance signal (Y) separately in order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors.

≥The description of the component video input terminals depends on the television or monitor (e.g. Y/PB/PR, Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/CB/CR). Connect to terminals of the same color.

≥After making this connection, select “Darker” from the “Black Level Control” in the “Video” tab (➜ page 26).

≥Using the S-VIDEO OUT terminal

The S-VIDEO OUT terminal achieves a more vivid picture than the VIDEO OUT terminal by separating the chrominance (C) and luminance

(Y) signals. (Actual results depend on the television.)
