The Flicker Reduction menu item will only appear if you have selected a low
resolution interlaced output such as PAL or NTSC. If you are using CV or YC
outputs, this adjustment may be of interest, particularly when you have line
drawings or similar fine detail. You can choose from four possible Flicker Reduction
settings. You should use as little Flicker Reduction as possible because the Vertical
detail will be softened at the highest setting.

Disables flicker reduction (sharpest mode).

High
Highest amount of flicker reduction. Will cause loss of

Image smoothing reduces the jagged-edges sometimes seen within an output
image by softening it. It typically improves the quality of a scaled image greatly.
There are four possible settings for this adjustment: “Off”, “Med.”, “High”, and
“Auto”. The “Auto” setting is generally thought to be most desirable and will vary the
smoothing process according to the amount of zoom taking place.
Occasionally, it’s necessary to cause the output image to be flipped Vertically,
Horizontally or both – most commonly when a video projector is ceiling-mounted, or
for special effects.
Note: These last two menu items only appear on Dual-channel scalers:
