Component Video Out
• Default setting:
Interlace
You only need to make this setting if you connected this
recorder to your TV using the component video jacks.
If your TV is compatible with progressive-scan
component video, set this
Progressive
for the highest
quality picture. If your TV is not compatible with
progressive-scan video, leave it set to
Interlace
.
See also
Progressive scan video
in the glossary on
page 99.
Important
• If you switch to
Progressive
when using a TV that is
not compatible with progressive-scan video, you will
not be able to see anything displayed on your TV. If
this happens, press and hold
PAUSE
on the front
panel, then press
DISC NAVIGATOR
. This will set the
recorder’s video output back to
Interlace
.
NTSC on PAL TV
• Default setting:
Off
When set to
On
, NTSC discs (from the U.S., for example)
will play correctly on a PAL-only TV. Change to
Off
if your
TV is already NTSC-compatible.
Depending on this setting and the Input Line System
setting (see
Input Line System
on page 74), the signal
format output when the recorder is stopped varies as
shown in the table below.
Note
• Many recent PAL TVs are capable of correctly
displaying NTSC pictures without the need for this
setting. Check the manual that came with your TV if
you’re not sure whether yours has this feature.
