◆ MODE(PROGRESSIVE)
DVD software can be divided into two types:
film based software and video based
software. Video based software is derived
from TV, such as dramas and sit-coms, and
displays images at 30 frames/60 fields per
second. Film based software is derived from
film and displays images at 24 frames per
second. Some DVD software contains both
Video and Film.
In order for these images to appear natural on
your screen when output in PROGRESSIVE
mode (60 frames per second), the progressive
video signal needs to be converted to match
the type of DVD software that you are
watching.
AUTO This will automatically detect
if you are playing Film based
or Video based software and
convert the signal to the
appropriate conversion mode.
Normally select this position.
