repeatedly.

Select “P AUTO” or “P VIDEO” if your TV accepts progressive signals and the TV is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks. Otherwise, select “INTERLACE”.

P AUTO (PROGRESSIVE AUTO)

The system automatically detects the software type and selects the appropriate conversion method.

P VIDEO (PROGRESSIVE VIDEO)

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”.

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.

Note

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