◆ BLACK LEVEL (COMPONENT OUT)
Selects the black level (setup level) for the
video signals output from the COMPONENT
VIDEO OUT jacks. When progressive
signals are being output (PROGRESSIVE is
lit on the front panel display), BLACK
LEVEL (COMPONENT OUT) is set to off
regardless of the setting (ON/OFF).
OFF Sets the black level of the
output signal to the standard
level.
ON
Raises the standard black level.
Use this when the picture
becomes too black.
When NORMAL/PROGRESSIVE
switch is set to PROGRESSIVE
You can fine-tune the Progressive (480p)
video signal output when you set NORMAL/
PROGRESSIVE switch to PROGRESSIVE
(the PROGRESSIVE indicator lights up) and
connect the player using the COMPONENT
VIDEO OUT jacks to a TV that is able to
accept the video signal in progressive format.
◆ MODE(PROGRESSIVE)
DVD software can be divided into two 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
mode (60 frames per second), the progressive
video signal needs to be converted to match
the type of DVD software that you are
watching.
AUTO
66
This will automatically detect
if you are playing Film based
or Video based software and
convert the signal to the
appropriate conversion mode.
Normally select this position.
VIDEO
This will set the conversion
mode for Video based
software, regardless of the
type of software that you are
playing.
Note
Using the LINE OUT (VIDEO) jack or the S
VIDEO OUT jack will cause the picture to become
unclear or go blank when you set NORMAL/
PROGRESSIVE switch to PROGRESSIVE. In this
case, set NORMAL/PROGRESSIVE switch to
NORMAL so that the PROGRESSIVE indicator
turns off.
