When connecting to a wide screen TV
Depending on the disc, the image may not fit your TV screen. To change the aspect ratio, see
page 68.
To change the colour system (Non-European models only)
If the on-screen menu of the player does not appear on the connected TV, switch the player’s
colour system to match the colour system of the TV (NTSC or PAL).
First turn off the player by pressing @/1, and then press @/1 again while holding down x on the
player. The player turns back on, and the name of the colour system scrolls across the front panel
display.
Notes
• Do not connect a VCR, etc., between your TV and the player. If you pass the player signals via the VCR,
you may not receive a clear image on the TV screen. If your TV has only one audio/video input jack,
connect the player to this jack.
• Consumers should note that not all high definition television sets are fully compatible with this product and
may cause artifacts to be displayed in the picture. In case of 525 or 625 progressive scan picture problems,
it is recommended that the user switch the connection to the ‘standard definition’ output. If there are
questions regarding your TV set compatibility with this 525p and 625p DVD player model, please contact
our customer service centre.
Using the NORMAL/PROGRESSIVE switch
By using the NORMAL/PROGRESSIVE switch, you can select the signal format in which the
player outputs video signals: interlace or progressive.
Connect the player using the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks (pattern A above), and set the
NORMAL/PROGRESSIVE switch to NORMAL (interlace) or PROGRESSIVE. The
PROGRESSIVE indicator lights up when the player outputs progressive signals.
◆PROGRESSIVE
Set to this position when:
–your TV accepts progressive signals, and,
–the TV is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks.
Note that the pictures will not be clear or no picture will appear if you set the NORMAL/
PROGRESSIVE to PROGRESSIVE when either of the above conditions is not met.
◆NORMAL (interlace)
Set to this position when:
–your TV does not accept progressive signals, or,
– your TV is connected to jacks other than the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks (VIDEO OUT
or S VIDEO OUT).
When you play a disc recorded in the NTSC colour system, the player outputs the video
signal or the Setup Display etc. in the NTSC colour system and the picture may not appear
on the PAL colour system televisions. In this case, press Z and remove the disc.
