Data on a DVD is divided into sections called "titles", and then into
subsections called "chapters", each of which is given a title or chap-
ter number. Playback conditions are preset on some DVD video
discs, and these playback conditions take priority over user opera-
tions on this player. If a function you selected do not run as desired,
refer to the manual accompanying the disc.

Selecting Progressive Scan (480p or Interlaced 480i) Playback

¡

If your TV is compatible with progressive scanning (480p), connect the TV to the Component Video Output
jacks of the DVD player and set the INTERLACE/PROGRESSIVE SCAN SELECTOR on the back of the
DVD player to P(PROGRESSIVE). Next, set your TV to the progressive scan mode.

If your TV is not compatible with progressive scan, set the INTERLACE/PROGRESSIVE SCAN SELEC-
TOR to I(INTERLACE).

¡

Use a commercially available adaptor if the video input jacks of your TVs or monitors are the BNC type.

¡

If you switch PROGRESSIVE/INTERLACE when the power is on, the DVD player will automatically be
turned off. When you turn on the DVD player again, the last selected scanning system will be employed.

What is Progressive Scanning?

¡

Unlike conventional interlace scanning, the progressive scan system provides less flickering and images in
higher resolution than that of traditional (480i) television signals.

¡

When P(PROGRESSIVE) is selected, no video signal will be output from the VIDEO OUT, or S-VIDEO
OUT jack.
