Video connections

If your AV receiver features video output jacks, connect this unit to the AV receiver (and then to your TV). This enables you to use one TV for several different video sources (LD, VDR etc.) by simply switching the input source selector on your AV receiver.

This unit features four types of video output jacks (Component, Video, S-Video, and AV). Connect the appropriate video output jack to your equipment.

SCAN MODE selector

This selector switches the type of output signal from the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks on this unit.

INTERLACE:

Select INTERLACE if you are connecting the component to a standard (interlace format) TV.

PROGRESSIVE:

Select PROGRESSIVE if your TV accepts NTSC progressive or PAL progressive signals. This setting will enable you to enjoy accurate color reproduction and high quality images. This unit features DCDi circuit. The PROGRESSIVE indicator on the front panel lights up during progressive playback.

Notes:

–In the PROGRESSIVE mode, 4:3 aspect images are stretched horizontally on the wide screen TV. We recommend to change the TV screen’s aspect ratio settings for progressive signals if you wish to watch the original aspect ratio images without distortion. You can also change the aspect ratio settings in the [4:3 Aspect] parameter in the On-screen menu.

–Some TVs and projectors are not compatible with this unit. If you notice picture distortion when outputting the progressive signals, switch the SCAN MODE selector to

INTERLACE.
