About DVD VIDEO software types
and the conversion method
The DVD VIDEO software can be divided into
2 types:
• Film-based software
Film-based software is derived from film and
displays the images at 24 frames per second.
• Video-based software
Video-based software is derived from TV,
such as dramas and sitcoms and displays
images at 30 frames or 60 fields per second.
Some DVD VIDEO contains both types of
software. In order for these images to appear in
your TV naturally when the video output is in
progressive format, the progressive signals need
to be converted to match your DVD VIDEO
software.
Notes
• When you connect your TV to the COMPONENT
VIDEO OUT jacks and play back video-based
software in progressive signal format. Some sections
of the image may appear unnatural due to the
conversion process.
• The image from VIDEO OUT and S VIDEO OUT
jacks are always output in INTERLACE format even
if you select "P AUTO" or "P VIDEO".
• There would be no image on your TV or the image is
not clear if your setting does not match your TV or
connection.
• "PROGRE" lights up in the display when you select
"P AUTO" or "P VIDEO".
