Progressive Scan - Toshiba D-VRW1 Owner's Manual

Progressive scan

The unit supports the progressive
scanning system as well as the con-
ventional interlaced scanning sys-
tem. If your TV is equipped with com-
ponent video input jacks which sup-
port the progressive video input, you
can enjoy high quality picture by
making the progressive scanning
mode active.
NOTES:
• Some discs may not be played back with the progressive scan mode correctly because of the disc characteris-
tics or recording condition.
• There are some progressive TV and High-Definition TV sets that are not fully compatible with the unit, resulting
in an unnatural picture when playing back a DVD disc in the progressive scan mode. In such a case, use the
interlaced scanning mode.
• You cannot activate the progressive scan mode in the following cases:
- The unit is in the VCR mode.
- A DVD disc is currently playing. You must stop playback first.
