P.scan (Progressive Scan) Function; Setting The Clock - Samsung MM-DX7 Instruction Manual

P.SCAN
(Progressive Scan)
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.

What is Progressive (or Non-Interlaced) Scanning?
Interlaced Scan (1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS)
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 1/25th of a second, contains
two interfaced fields, thus a total of 50 fields are
displayed every 1/50th of a second.
The interlaced scanning method is intended for capturing
a still object.
Note •
This function works only on TVs equipped with component video inputs (Y, Pr, Pb) that support
Progressive Video. (It does not work on TVs with conventional component inputs, i.e., non-progressive
scan TVs.)
•
Depending on the capabilities of your TV, this function may not work.

Function
Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)
The progressive scanning method scans one full frame of
video consecutively down the screen, line by line.
An entire image is drawn at one time, as opposed to the
interlaced scanning process by which a video image is
drawn in a series of passes.
The progressive scanning method is desirable for dealing
with moving objects.
