The progressive scan capability provides the highest resolution pictures with less
flicker and line structure.
If you are using the Component video jacks, but are connecting the DVD/VCR to
a standard (analog) television, set PROGRESSIVE to Off.
If you are using the Component video jacks for connection to a TV or monitor that
is compatible with a progressive scan signal, set PROGRESSIVE to On.

Notes:
• Some discs may not be played back with the progressive
scanning mode correctly because of the disc characteristics
or recording condition.
• If your TV does not accept the progressive scan format, the
picture will appear scrambled if you select progressive scan
output from the unit. In such a case, select PROGRESSIVE
scan Off.
• Once PROGRESSIVE scan On, all other video outputs are
disabled except component video outputs.
• You cannot make the progressive scanning mode active in
following cases.
– The unit is in the VCR mode.
– The disc is played back in the DVD mode.
– The S-VIDEO/COMPONENT video selector switch is set to
S-VIDEO position.
There are two types of source content in pictures recorded in
DVD video discs: film content (pictures recorded from films
at 24 frames per second) and video content (video signals
recorded at 30 frames per second).
When the unit plays back a film source material, uninterlaced
progressive output signals are created using the original
information. When a video content is played back, the unit
interleaves lines between the interlaced lines on each to
create the interpolated picture and outputs as the progressive
signal.
