To make the Progressive scanning mode selection active
The unit supports the Progressive scanning system as well as the conventional Interlaced scanning system. If your
television or monitor supports the progressive video input, you can enjoy a high quality picture by making the
Progressive scanning mode active.
If you want to select the scanning mode between the interlaced and progressive modes depending on the source
condition or when connecting more than one television, you can select the mode from the remote control unit. To do
this, set the scan mode selector on the rear panel to "REMOTE" (see page 7).
• When the unit is turned on, and the scan mode selector on the rear panel is set to "REMOTE."
Press and hold down VFP - PROGRESSIVE SCAN for few seconds
The scanning mode switches between the Progressive scanning and Interlaced scanning modes.
• When the scanning mode is set to the progressive mode, the PROGRESIVE indicator on the front panel is lit.
Depending on the "PROGRESSIVE MODE" setting on the "PICTURE" preference display and whether the current DVD
VIDEO disc is film-source or video-source, the color of the indicator differs, as shown in the table below. (see also
page 51).
About SCANNING MODE
To display video on the television (monitor) screen, the conventional scanning method is called "Interlaced scanning."
With this method, only half of the horizontal lines are displayed at a time. So two fields complete a single picture
(frame); i,e., the first field, containing all the odd-numbered lines, is displayed followed by the second field, containing
all the even-numbered lines.
On the other hand, the Progressive scanning, resulting in flicker-free, high-density picture.
Depending on the material source format, DVD VIDEO discs can be classified into two types; film source and video
source (note that some DVD VIDEO discs contain both film source and video source). Film sources are recorded as 24-
frame-per-second information, while (NTSC) video sources are recorded as 30-frame-per-second (60-field-per-secon
interlaced) information.
When the unit plays back a film source material, uninterlaced progressive output signals are created using the original
information. When a video source material is played back, the unit interleaves lines between the interlaced lines on
each to create the interpolated picture and outputs as the progressive signal.

NOTES
• There are some progressive TV and High-Definition TV sets that are not fully compatible with the unit, resulting in the
unnatural picture when playing back a DVD VIDEO disc in the Progressive scanning mode. In such a case, use the Interlaced
scanning mode. To check the compatibility of your TV set, contact your local JVC customer service center.
• All JVC progressive TV and High-Definition TV sets are fully compatible with the unit (Example : AV-61S902).
