Using the PROGRESSIVE button

By using the PROGRESSIVE button on the front panel, you can select the signal format in which the player outputs video signals (Progressive or Interlace), and the conversion method for progressive signal s. The PROGRESSIVE i ndi cator lights up when the player outputs progressive signals. Each time you press PROGRESSIVE, th e di splay changes as fo llows:

PROGRESSIVE AUTO

PROGRESSIVE VIDEO

NORMAL (INTERLACE)

,continued

◆PROGRESSIVE AUTO

Select th is setting when: –your TV accepts prog ressive signals, and , –the TV is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks. Normally select this under the above condition. This automatically detects the software type, and selects the appropriate conversion m et hod. Note that the picture will not be clear or no picture will appear if you select these settings when either of the above conditions is not met.

◆PROGRESSIVE VIDEO

Select th is setting when: –your TV accepts prog ressive signals, and , –the TV is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks, and –you want to fix the conversion method to PROGRESSIVE VIDEO for video-based software. Select this if the image is not c lear when you selec t PROGRESSIVE AU TO. Note that the picture will not be clear or no picture will appear if you select these settings when either of the above conditions is not met.

◆NORMAL (INTERLACE)

Select th is setting when: – your TV does not acc ept progressive signals, or, – your TV is connected to jacks other than the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks (LINE OUT (VIDEO) or S VIDEO OUT).

◆About DVD software types and the conv er si on method

DVD software can be divided into two types: film-based software and video based software. Video-based software is derived from TV, such as dramas and sit-coms, and displays images at 30 frames/60 fiel ds per second. Film -based software is de ri ved from film and dis pl ays images at 24 frames per second. Some DVD software contains both video and film. In order for the se images to appear natural on your scr een when output in pr ogressive form at, the progressive signals need to be converted to match the type of DVD software that you are watching.

Notes

• When you pl ay video- ba se d sof twa re in prog ressive signal format, sections of some ty pes of ima ge s ma y appear unnatural due to the conversion process whe n output through the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks. Images from th e S VIDE O OUT and L INE OUT (VI DEO) ja cks are un affect ed as t hey a re ou tput i n the normal (interlace) format.

• If y ou s e t “LINE” in “SCR E E N SETUP” to “RGB,” then the pl ayer switches t o “N ORMAL (INTERLACE).” This will happen even though you select “PROGRESSIVE AUTO” or “PROGRESSIVE VIDEO.”
