What is Progressive (or Non-Interlaced) Scanning?

Interlaced Scan (1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS)

In interlaced-scan video, a frame consists of two inter­laced fields (odd and even), where each field contains
every other horizontal line in the frame.
The odd field of alternating lines is displayed first, and
then the even field is displayed to fill in the alternating
gaps left by the odd field to form a single frame.
One frame, displayed every 1/30th of a second, contains
two interfaced fields, thus a total of 60 fields are dis­played every 1/60th of a second.
The interlaced scanning method is intended for capturing
a still object.

Note

This function works only on TVs equipped with component video inputs (Y, Pr, Pb) that support

•

Progressive Video. (It does not work on TVs with conventional component inputs, i.e., non-progressive
scan TVs.)
Depending on the brand and model of your TV, this function may not work.

•

Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)

The progressive scanning method scans one full frame of
video consecutively down the screen, line by line.
An entire image is drawn at one time, as opposed to the
interlaced scanning process by which a video image is
drawn in a series of passes.
The progressive scanning method is desirable for dealing
with moving objects.
