P. SCAN (Progressive Scan ) Function

Unlike a regular Interlace Scan in which two fields of picture information are alternated to

create the entire picture (odd scan lines, then even scan lines), Progressive Scan uses one field of information ( all lines displayed in one pass ) to create a clear and detailed picture without visible scan lines.

While the player is in the Stop mode , hold the RSCAN button down for _ longer than 1 second.

• The selection switches back and forth between "t .SCAN" and "7.SCAN" each time the

button is held down for a minimum of 1 second.

The previous mode is indicated in the display first, followed by the selected mode in about a second.

What is Progressive (or Non-Interlaced ) Scanning? )

Interlaced Scan ( 1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS)

Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)

In interlaced-scan video, a frame consists of two Interlaced fields (odd and even), where each field contains every other horizontal fine In the frame.

The odd field of alternating lines is displayed first, and then the even field is displayed to fill in the allemating gaps left by the odd field to form a single frame.

One frame, displayed every 1/30th of a second, contains two interlaced fields, thus a total of 60 fields are displayed every 1/60th of a second each.

The interlaced scanning method is intended for capturing a still object.

The progressive scanning method scans one full frame of video consecutively down the screen , line by line.

As opposed to the interlaced scanning process by which a video image is drawn in a series of passes , you get an entire Image drawn at one time.

The progressive scanning method is desirable for dealing with moving objects. A camera that has the ability to capture moving objects Is called a'full frame shutter camera'
