Mode, Virtual headphone) developed in cooperation with DiMagic Co., Ltd., for
full,spacious sound and easy control.

Unlike regular interlace Scan ,in which two fields of picture information alternate 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.
Sound Logo
When power is turned on, a sound logo is output from the speakers to notify the user that the unit
is optimized for disc playback.
