progressive output (➡ 96) and provide a purer picture than the
S VIDEO OUT terminal.
y Connect to terminals of the same colour.
Required setting
“Progressive” setting in the Setup menu (➡ 75)
If you have a regular television (CRT: cathode ray tube)
Progressive output may cause some fl ickering, even if it is
progressive compatible. Turn off “Progressive” if you are concerned
about it (➡ 66). This is the same for multi-system televisions using
PAL mode.
