Note
• Connect this unit directly to the TV. If the A/V cables are connected to a VCR, pictures may be distorted
due to the copy protection system.
• When Progressive Scan mode is selected, no video signal will be output from the VIDEO OUT or
S-VIDEO OUT jack.
This unit is compatible with the Progressive Scan System. The feature provides you
with the higher definition images than the traditional output system does. To utilize this
feature, you must set Progressive Scan mode to "ON" in the Setup menu by following
the steps below.
1. Press [SETUP] to call up the Setup menu.
2. Select "Playback" using [K / L], then press [ENTER].
3. Select "Video" using [K / L], then press [ENTER].
4. Select "Progressive" using [K / L], then press [ENTER].
5. Select "ON" using [K / L], then press [ENTER].
6. Select "Yes" using [s / B], then press [ENTER].
If your TV is compatible with Progressive Scan (525p / 480p), you must use the
Component Video cable (commercially available) to connect this unit to the TV. (See
Method 2 on this page.) Make sure the "P.SCAN" appears on the front panel display.
If not, use the video cable and set the Progressive Scan mode to "OFF", or press and
hold [SETUP] for more than 5 seconds, so that the "P.SCAN" on the front panel display
disappears.
