Notes

• When you play back an HDV-formatted tape with copyright protected signals, or input HDV format with copyright protected signals to HDV/DV jack, COMPONENT OUT jacks will output pictures in either 480i or 576i format.

• Regardless of the playback tape or of the format input to HDV/DV jack, the selectable setting values displayed on this menu vary depending on the setting of [60i/50i SEL].

•WSS (Wide Screen Signaling) is not output, when the picture is output to COMPONENT OUT jacks in 480p or 576p. Set the monitor according to the down convert format of the picture, which is output from the unit.

•When you play back a tape in DVCAM (DV) format while an EE picture in NTSC/PAL is displayed, the 480i resolution or the 576i resolution is output, regardless of the setting of [HDMI/CMPNT].
