DTS Digital Surround, the following symptoms may occur;

This system supports the progressive scan system (525p*) as well
as the conventional interlaced scan system (525i*).
If your TV equipped with component jacks supports the
progressive video input, you can enjoy a high quality picture by
setting the progressive scan mode to active.
• Refer also to the instruction manuals supplied with your TV.
• If your TV equipped with component jacks does not support the
progressive video input, do not change the scan mode to the
progressive scan mode.
* 525p and 525i indicate the number of scanning lines and
scanning format of an image signal.
•
525p indicates 525 scanning lines with progressive format.
•
525i indicates 525 scanning lines with interlaced format.

mode cannot be changed.
• There are some progressive TVs and High-Definition TVs that are not
fully compatible with this system, resulting in an unnatural picture
when playing back a DVD in the progressive scan mode. In such a
case, change the scan mode to “INTERLACE”.
To check the compatibility of your TV, contact your local JVC
customer service center.
• All JVC progressive TVs and High-Definition TVs are fully
compatible with this system.
