If your TV is compatible with progressive-scan component video, set this Progressive (Full) for the highest quality picture. (If when set to Progressive (Full) 4:3 programs are ‘stretched’ and you can’t fix this with the controls on your TV, try the Progressive (Normal) setting.)

If your TV is not compatible with progressive-scan video, leave it set to Interlace.

Note that when AV1 Out (see page 112) is set to RGB, no video is output from the component video jacks.

See also Progressive scan video in the glossary on page 136.

Important

If you switch to one of the progressive settings when using a TV that is not compatible with progressive-scan video, you will not be able to see anything displayed on your TV. If this happens, press and hold the button on the front panel, then press DISC NAVIGATOR. This will set the recorder’s video output back to Interlace.

Compatibility of this unit with progressive-scan TVs

Consumers should note that not all high-definition television sets are fully compatible with this product and may cause artifacts to be displayed in the picture. In case of 525 progressive scan picture problems, it is recommended that the user switch the connection to the ‘standard definition’ output (Interlace). If there are questions regarding our TV set compatibility with this model, please contact our customer service center.

You only need to make this setting if you connected this recorder to your TV using the AV1(RGB)-TVSCART AV connector.

Important

If you make a setting here that is incompatible with your TV, the TV may not display any picture at all. If this happens either switch everything off and reconnect to the TV using either the supplied video cable, or an S-video cable (see Using the S-video or component video output on page 15 for more on this), or reset the recorder (see Resetting the recorder on page 123 for how to do this).
