• Prog.Motion – Adjust according to the type of image
(moving or still image). This is effective mainly when
outputting video materials as progressive images.

the progressive scanning circuit for playing film
materials. Normally set it to Auto1. If the picture
seems unnatural, switch this to Auto 2, On or Off
(page 35).
• YNR – Reduces noise in the luminance (Y) signal.
• CNR – Reduces noise in the chroma (C) signal.
• BNR – Reduces the block noise (block-shaped
distortion generated upon MPEG compression).
• MNR – Reduces the mosquito noise (distortion along
the contours of the picture generated upon MPEG
compression).
• Detail – Adjusts the picture's contours.
• White Level – Adjusts the level of the white portions.
• Black Level – Adjusts the level of the black portions.
• Black Setup – Select the black level as the setup level.
Normally select 7.5 IRE. If the black level is too bright
due to the combination with the connected TV, select
0 IRE.

of the picture look.
