Getting Started

Setting the TV System

(except for Taiwanese model)

The default setting of this player is AUTO,
and unless you notice that the picture is
distorted when playing some discs, you
should leave it set to AUTO.
If you experience picture distortion with
some discs, set the TV system to match
your country or region's system. Doing
this, however, may restrict the kinds of
disc you can watch. The table below shows
what kinds of disc are compatible with
each setting (AUTO, PAL and NTSC).

• SHRINK
Most models of the newly developed countdown
PAL TV system detect 50 Hz (PAL)/60 Hz
(NTSC) and automatically switch vertical
amplitude, resulting in a display without vertical
shrinkage.
• If your PAL TV does not have a V-Hold control,
you may not be able to view NTSC disc because
the picture may roll. If the TV has a V-Hold
control, adjust it until the picture stops rolling.
On some TVs, the picture may shrink vertically,
leaving black bands at the top and bottom of the
screen. This is not a malfunction; it is caused by
the NTSC]PAL conversion.
