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.

When Component Out (above) is set to Progressive, there is no video output from the VIDEO and S-VIDEOjacks. If you want to display video on more than one monitor simultaneously, make sure that it is set to Interlace.
