If you have a progressive-scan compatible TV, set this to Progressive for flicker-free video output. If your TV is not compatible with progressive-scan video, set to Interlace. Check the operating instructions that came with your TV if you’re unsure about its compatibility.

When setting to Progressive, you have to press ENTER once more to confirm (or RETURN to cancel). See also below for important information on progressive scan video.

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 TV format is set to AUTO or NTSC only: 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. See also Setting the TV format on page 75.

If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a progressive scan signal and switch the system to progressive, you will not be able to see any picture at all. In this case,

press STANDBY/ON to put the system in standby, then press and hold the front panel (stop) button for about 8 seconds until the display shows Mem.Clr.?. Press the front panel VOLUME – (DOWN) or + (UP) button so that the display shows Interlace?. Press the front panel button to set to interlace and switch the system back on.
