Progressive Mode

This function allows you to select the progressive display of a video signal. The progressive display projects a smoother video image.

Select “Progressive Mode” in the “Picture ” menu on the menu screen. For operating the menu screen, see pages 40 to 43.

Note

2D Progressive

This function is useful to display fast- moving images such as sports and ac- tion films. This mode optimizes the im- age in a displayed frame.

3D Progressive

This function is useful to display relatively slow-moving images such as drama and documentary more clearly.

This mode optimizes the image by esti- mating the movement of a number of pre- ceding and succeeding frames.

Film Mode

Reproduces the image of film source clearly. Displays the optimized image of film transformed with three-two pull down (NTSC and PAL60Hz) or two-two pull down (PAL50Hz and SECAM) enhance- ment to progressive mode images.

*The film source is a digital video record- ing with the original encoded as is at 24 frames/second. The projector can con- vert this film source to progressive video at 60 frames/second with NTSC and PAL60Hz or at 50 frames/second with PAL50Hz and SECAM to play back a high-definition image.

When using progressive inputs, these inputs are directly displayed so that 2D Progressive, 3D Progressive and Film Mode cannot be selected. These modes can be selected in interlace signals other than 1080I.

In NTSC or PAL60Hz, even if the 3D Pro- gressive mode has been set, the three- two pull down enhancement will be en- abled automatically, when the film source has been entered.

In PAL50Hz or SECAM, the two-two pull down enhancement will be enabled only in the Film Mode, when the film source has been entered.
