Before Using the DVD Player
14
Your DVD player is capable of playing DVD, VCD, and CD discs.
User instructions may vary depending on the type of disc. Read the instructions
carefully before use.
TV Broadcast System
• This device is designed to work with the NTSC video format.
• To change the TV broadcast system to be output, press the ZOOM button while the
power is turned off. The selection will switch between NTSC and PAL each time
you press the button.
• For normal playback, the video format a DVD disc is recorded in must coincide
with your TV's video format.

Unlike a regular Interlace Scan in which two fields of picture information are alternated to
create the entire picture (odd scan lines, then even scan lines), Progressive Scan uses
one field of information (all lines displayed in one pass) to create a clear and detailed
picture without visible scan lines.
P.SCAN
(Progressive Scan)
Function
While the player is in the Stop mode, hold the P.SCAN button down for
longer than 1 second.
•
The selection switches back and forth between "
P.SCAN
" and "
I.SCAN
" each time the
button is held down for a minimum of 1 second.
•
The previous mode is indicated in the display first, followed by the selected mode in about
a second.
In interlaced-scan video, a frame consists of two
interlaced fields (odd and even), where each field
contains every other horizontal line in the frame.
The odd field of alternating lines is displayed first, and
then the even field is displayed to fill in the alternating
gaps left by the odd field to form a single frame.
One frame, displayed every 1/30th of a second, contains
two interfaced fields, thus a total of 60 fields are
displayed every 1/60th of a second each.
The interlaced scanning method is intended for capturing
a still object.
Interlaced Scan (1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS)
The progressive scanning method scans one full frame of
video consecutively down the screen, line by line.
As opposed to the interlaced scanning process by which a
video image is drawn in a series of passes, you get an
entire image drawn at one time.
The progressive scanning method is desirable for dealing
with moving objects. A camera that has the ability to
capture moving objects is called a "full frame shutter
camera".
Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)
