Setting the component video output
Compared to a standard interlaced TV picture, a progressive scan TV is capable of more sta-
ble, flicker-free images. Don't set this parameter if your NTSC color TV or monitor doesn't
support progressive scan.

Tip
If [Auto Progressive] is selected, the picture may flicker or be distorted when the unit switches
between progressive and interlace modes. This is not a malfunction of either the PDR-155 or the TV.
If your TV does not switch between 4:3 and 16:9, change the aspect ratio of the TV to 4:3. Alter-
natively, set [Component Video] in the Setup window to [Interlace] or [Auto Progressive]. If you
select [Auto Progressive], 4:3 discs will be played in Interlace mode, while discs that are recorded in
both 4:3 and 16:9 will play in interlace mode during the 4:3 sections, and in progressive mode during
the 16:9 parts. Switch your TV's aspect ratio to the most suitable setting (for more details, see the
manual that came with your TV).
Notes
• If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a progressive scan signal and you choose
progressive scan mode, you will not be able to see any picture at all. If your TV is con-
nected via the composite or S video connectors, choose [Interlace] for [Component Video].
• This function only works with NTSC format DVDs.
