About DVD software types and
the conversion method
DVD software can be divided into 2 types: film
based software and video based software.
Video based software is derived from TV, such
as dramas and sit-coms, and displays images at
30 frames/60 fields per second. Film based
software is derived from film and displays
images at 24 frames per second. Some DVD
software contains both video and film.
In order for these images to appear natural on
your screen when output in progressive format,
the progressive signals need to be converted to
match the type of DVD software that you are
watching.
Note
• When you play video based software in progressive
