P-SCAN* y Interlace (default setting)

*“PROGRE” appears in the front panel display when the system outputs progressive signals.

xP-SCAN

Select this setting when your TV accepts progressive signals and the TV is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks. Normally select this setting under the above condition.

Note that the picture will not be clear or no picture will appear if you select these settings when either of the above conditions is not met.

xInterlace (default setting)

Select this setting when your TV does not accept progressive signals or your TV is connected to the VIDEO OUT jack.

About DVD software types and the conversion method

DVD software can be divided into 2 types: film- based software and video-based software. Video-based software is derived from TV, such as dramas and sit-coms, and displays images at

30frames/60 fields per second. Film-based software is derived from film and displays images at 24 frames per second. Some DVD software contains both video and film.

In order for these images to appear natural on your screen when output in progressive format, the progressive signals need to be converted to match the type of DVD software that you are watching.

Note

When you play video-based software in progressive signal format, sections of some types of images may appear unnatural due to the conversion process when output through the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks. Even though you set to “P-SCAN,” images from the VIDEO OUT jack are unaffected as they are output in the interlace format.
