Changing the format of the video signal from

COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks

Progressive is the method for displaying the TV images which reduces flickering and sharpens the image. To use this method, you need to connect to a TV that can accept progressive signals.

You can output video signals from COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks in INTERLACE or PROGRESSIVE format.

1 Press FUNCTION +/– repeatedly to select “DVD” (or press DVD on the unit).2 Press PROGRESSIVE on the unit repeatedly.

Each time you press the button, the display changes cyclically as follows:

P AUTO t P VIDEO t INTERLACE

xP AUTO (PROGRESSIVE AUTO)

Select this when your TV accepts progressive signals and the TV is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks. The system automatically detects the software type and selects the appropriate conversion method.

xP VIDEO (PROGRESSIVE VIDEO)

Select this when your TV accepts progressive signals and the TV is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks.

The system fixes the conversion method to PROGRESSIVE VIDEO for video-based software.

Select this if the image is not clear when you select “P AUTO”.

xINTERLACE

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

About DVD VIDEO software types and the conversion method

The DVD VIDEO software can be divided into

2 types:

•Film-based software

Film-based software is derived from film and displays the images at 24 frames per second.

•Video-based software

Video-based software is derived from TV, such as dramas and sitcoms and displays images at 30 frames or 60 fields per second.

Some DVD VIDEO contains both types of software. In order for these images to appear in your TV naturally when the video output is in progressive format, the progressive signals need to be converted to match your DVD VIDEO software.

Notes

•When you connect your TV to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks and play back video-based software in progressive signal format, some sections of the image may appear unnatural due to the conversion process.

•The image from VIDEO OUT and S VIDEO OUT jacks are always output in INTERLACE format even if you select “P AUTO” or “P VIDEO”.

•There would be no image on your TV or the image is not clear if your setting does not match your TV or connection.

•“PROGRESSIVE” lights up in the display when you select “P AUTO” or “P VIDEO”.
