Picture Settings
Comb Filter
On: The picture becomes clear and contour-rich. This setting is always set to [On] if you
have selected [TV System - NTSC].
Off: If the picture to be recorded is grainy.
Still Mode
Select the display of the still image.
Field: Select this function, if the picture is disturbed with the [Automatic] setting.
Frame: Select this function if small text or line structures are not displayed clearly with the [Automatic]
setting.
Frames are still images that together form a moving picture. A full frame is made up of
2 half frames. The picture can appear blurry but the overall quality is good.
A half frame only contains half of the information of a full frame and has a poorer picture quality.
Seamless Play
On: When playing playlists, the transitions from one chapter to the next are improved.
The end and beginning of the chapters can shift slightly and the transition is smooth.
Off: The transitions between the chapters are played as they were recorded. The picture may freeze for a second
during the transition.
Seamless Play does not work if several audio channels are recorded..
