Before You Start

Features

525 line digital progressive-scan
component video output
Compared to standard interlaced video,
progressive scan effectively doubles the
amount of video information fed to your TV or
monitor. The result is a stable, flicker-free
image. (Check your TV/monitor for compat-
ibility with this feature.)
For the very highest picture quality, try
watching a movie on DVD-Video on a progres-
sive-scan compatible TV.
What is Super VCD?

Video Adjust
This new type of DNR (Digital Noise
Reduction) for encoding video enables
you to adjust the video settings on a more
detailed and exact level. There are three
possible settings to choose from. These
include: TV (CRT), PDP, and Professional.
This technology can remember which
setting you've chosen and employ it at the
proper time. (see page 45).
Legato PRO (Legato Link
Conversion PRO)
The Legato PRO digital filter restores some of
the high-frequency information lost in the CD
and DVD recording and mastering process by
upsampling from 44.1kHz to 176.4kHz for CD
and from 48kHz to 192kHz for DVD.
Legato PRO has four settings, including
Standard and three effect settings. You can
also switch it off. (see page 41).
Hi-Bit
Hi-Bit extends the dynamic range of the main
front speakers by effectively increasing the bit
depth from 16-20 bit to 24 bit. This allows
the player to reveal greater detail in low level
audio (see page 41).
High quality 24-bit/192kHz DAC
The high specification 24-bit/192kHz DAC
delivers dynamic, smooth and expansive
analog sound from CDs and DVDs.
Graphical Setup Navigator
Setting up your DVD player is easy using the
graphical Setup Navigator. Answer the
questions that appear on-screen and the
Setup Navigator makes the necessary audio,
video and language settings for you (see page
15).
