•When “LINE” is set to “RGB” in “SCREEN SETUP”, you cannot select “COMPONENT OUT” (the player outputs no component video signals).

•When “COMPONENT OUT” is set to “ON” you cannot select “RGB.”

◆COMPONENT OUT (DVP-NS585P only)

Allows your TV to receive signals from the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks.

About the NORMAL/PROGRESSIVE switch (DVP-NS585P only)

The NORMAL/PROGRESSIVE switch on the rear panel of the player selects the signal output from the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks: interlace or progressive. The switch takes priority over the setting made in “COMPONENT OUT.”

To switch the video signal format

If you have selected “PROGRESSIVE” for a TV that does not accept signals in progressive signals, or if the software’s video signals are not suited for progressive video signal conversion, view the image in Interlace format. Set the NORMAL/ PROGRESSIVE switch on the rear panel of the player to “NORMAL.”

zHint

When the player outputs progressive signals, the PROGRESSIVE indicator lights up.

Notes

•When you connect the player to a monitor or projector via only the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks, do not select “OFF.” If you select “OFF” in this case, the picture may not appear.

•When you play video based software with progressive signals, sections of some types of images may appear unnatural due to the conversion process when output through the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks.

•When you set NORMAL/PROGRESSIVE switch to PROGRESSIVE, you cannot select “LINE” and “COMPONENT OUT”.

When NORMAL/PROGRESSIVE switch is set to PROGRESSIVE (DVP-NS585P only)

You can fine-tune the Progressive 525p/625p video signal output when you set the NORMAL/PROGRESSIVE switch to PROGRESSIVE (the PROGRESSIVE indicator lights up) and connect the player using the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks to a TV that is able to accept the video signal in progressive format.

◆MODE (Conversion Modes)

DVD software can be divided into two 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 30 frames/60 fields (25 frames/50 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 mode (50 or 60 frames per second), the progressive video signal needs to be converted to match the type of DVD software that you are watching.

AUTO

This will automatically detect

 

if you are playing Film based

 

or Video based software and

 

convert the signal to the

 

appropriate conversion mode.

 

Normally select this position.

 

 

VIDEO

This will set the conversion

 

mode for Video based

 

software, regardless of the type

 

of software that you are

 

playing.

 

 

Notes

•When you play video based software with progressive signals, sections of some types of images may appear unnatural due to the conversion process when output through the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks.

•Using the LINE OUT (VIDEO) jack, the LINE (RGB) jack, or the S VIDEO OUT jack will cause the TV picture to become unclear or go blank when you set NORMAL/PROGRESSIVE switch to PROGRESSIVE. In this case, set the NORMAL/PROGRESSIVE switch to NORMAL so that the PROGRESSIVE indicator turns off.
