Track

Sections of a musical piece on an audio CD. Each track is assigned a track number, enabling you to locate the track you want.

To keep the surface clean

Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray , near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will leave marks on the surface.

Handling discs

Do not touch the playback side of the disc. Hold the disc by the edges so that fingerprints will not get on the surface. Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

Cleaning the unit

To clean the cabinet

ENGLISH

General information on progressive scan

This unit includes a progressive scan conversion circuit. This generates high-resolution progressive scan video, with a lower flicker rate, allowing you to see the movie at its original quality.

What is a progressive scan?

The conventional television system has 525 scan lines making up a frame, but these are scanned in alternate interlaced passes of the 262.5 odd scan lines and the 262.5 even scan lines (in the case of the NTSC color system). Since its frame rate is 30 frames per second, one of these passes, termed a field, occurs every 1/60 second. With larger screens, since the whole screen is only refreshed every 1/30 second, there can be noticeable flickers.

In distinction to this, a progressive scan is one where all of the lines are scanned successively in a single pass. By saving a field in memory, it is possible to convert an interlaced video signal to a progressive scan, which then allows the image to be refreshed every 1/60 second, reducing flickers on a large screen.

Advantages of progressive scan conversion in the DVD player

Since the DVD player converts the video signal to a progressive scan before digital-analog conversion, the total number of conversions the signal undergoes is reduced, compared with using a progressive scan conversion in the television (see following figure). This reduces signal degradation, and allows higher quality video playback.
