Progressive Mode
DVD software can be divided into two types:
film based software and video based
software. Video based software is derived
from TV and displays images at 30 frames/60
fields per second. Film based software is
derived from film and displays images at 24
frames per second. Some DVD software
contains both Video and Film.
In order for these images to appear natural on
your screen when output in progressive
mode, the progressive video signal needs to
be converted to match the type of DVD
software that you are watching.
You can fine-tune the progressive 480p video
signal that is output when you set
“Progressive Output” to “On.”
Note that you must connect to a progressive
format TV using the COMPONENT VIDEO
OUT jacks (page 16).
