About progressive scan video

Compared to interlace video, progressive scan video effectively doubles the scanning rate of the picture, resulting in a very stable, flicker-free image.

Progressive scan video is available only from the component video output. Use the PROGRESSIVE button on the front panel to switch the component video output and (except DV-59AVi and DV-S969AVi Australian model) the D video out between interlace and progressive. With a DVD-Video disc you can do this during playback, or when the disc is stopped. For other types of disc, the player must be stopped.

•If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a NTSC or PAL progressive scan signal and switch the player to progres- sive, you will not be able to see any picture at all. In this case, press the PROGRES- SIVE button on the front panel to switch back to interlace (the PROGRESSIVE indi- cator should be unlit).

•You can’t switch video output when an OSD is on-screen.

•The picture on some TVs may momen- tarily break up when you switch the video output of this player.
