If you are using the S-Video output only, no
change is required, but it is a good idea to
check this option to make certain that the circle
next to the S-Video option is orange.

If you are using the Component Video jacks, but

log) television, press the

word “Component” is orange. Press the

memory, but DO NOT change the setting in the
bottom half of the menu box. The orange circle
in the Progressive section of the menu should
be next to “Off”.

If you are using the Component Video jacks for

with a progressive scan signal, first press the ‚
Navigation button so that the circle next to
the word “Component” is orange. Next, press
the

circle in the lower portion of the menu box
under the word “Progressive” is next to the
word “On”. Press the

WARNING:

Once the setting for progressive

scan output is entered, an image will only be
visible on a progressive scan-compatible
video display. If you change the setting to
“Progressive” Scan in error, you must reset the
unit by first pressing the

Stop Button

to stop any disc that is playing. Next, press the

Stop Button

again and hold it for

five seconds before releasing it. Turn the unit
off and pause for a few seconds. When you turn

the DVD 50 on again, the video output will be
restored to the standard setting, and a picture
will once again be visible on a conventional
analog display.

If you have no further changes to make after
setting this default, press the

Menu Button

to remove the Setup Menu from the

screen, or press the

Play Button

resume playback.

DVD Auto Play

The DVD 50’s Auto Play function makes it easier
and more enjoyable to view DVDs. When this
feature is activated, the unit will automatically
start playback when the Main Menu of a DVD
appears if no other button is pressed within
three seconds of the time the Main Menu
appears. In normal use, most discs stop at the
Main Menu to wait for your input, requiring
some user intervention. With Auto Play, DVD
viewing is seamless, as the start of the movie is
automatically selected unless another function
is specifically requested. Of course, even with
Auto Play in effect, you may always customize
the disc’s playback by pressing any button to
make your selection within three seconds.
