About PROGRESSIVE SCANNING MODE
To display video on the TV screen, the conventional
1/9
scanning method is called "Interlaced scanning." With this
method, only half of the horizontal lines are displayed at a
time. So two fields complete a single picture (frame); i.e.,
the first field, containing all the odd-numbered lines, is
displayed followed by the second field, containing all the
even-numbered lines.
The Progressive scanning system scans all horizontal
lines at a time, so you can double the number of lines
compared with the interlaced scanning, resulting in a
high-density, flicker-free picture.
To enjoy a progressive scanned video, the TV connected
to the unit must have Progressive inputs.
Depending on the material source format, DVD discs can
be classified into two categories; film and video (note that
some DVD discs contain both a film source and a video
source). Film sources are recorded as 24-frame-per-
second information, while (NTSC) video sources are
recorded as 30-frame-per second (60-field-per-second
interlaced) information.
When the unit plays back a film source material,
uninterlaced progressive output signals are created using
Parental
Other
the original information. When a video source material is
played back, the unit interleaves lines between the
Max
interlaced lines on each to create the interpolated picture
Std
and outputs as the progressive signal.
Min
NOTES:
• Some discs may not be played back with the progressive scan-
ning mode correctly because of the disc characteristics or re-
cording condition.
• There are some progressive TV and High-Definition TV sets that
are not fully compatible with the unit, resulting in the unnatural
picture when playing back a DVD disc in the Progressive scan-
ning mode. In such a case, use the Interlaced scanning mode.
• You cannot make the progressive scanning mode active in fol-
lowing cases.
– The unit is in the VCR mode.
– The disc is played back in the DVD mode.
– The S-VIDEO/COMPONENT video selector swich is set to
S-VIDEO positon.
