Enjoying High-Quality Video (NTSC/Progressive Scan)
46
Progressive Scan is video that represent a frame with one pass of sequential scan lines whereas interlace output video,
which is usually adopted for most TVs, represents a frame with two passes. Progressive Scan provides better video
quality by reducing picture noises. To enjoy DVDs with Progressive Scan, you need to connect the CinemaStation to a
TV that has component video input jacks compatible with Progressive Scan. For details on connections, refer to “Other
connection methods” (page 12). Also, Progressive Scan is available only for NTSC signal output. You can set the video
signal system of your TV to “NTSC” with the On-Screen Menu (page 29).

provides video with interlace output mode.
• During playback, you cannot switch between the Progressive
Scan mode and the interlace output mode.
• If you play video with a 4:3 aspect ratio on a 16:9 wide television screen, Progressive Scan may fill the screen top to bottom. In this
case, change the screen aspect setting of your TV with the On-Screen Menu (page 29). If you cannot adjust the ratio, press
PROGRESSIVE (MEMORY) to turn off the Progressive Scan mode (use the interlace output mode).
• When the Progressive Scan mode is activated, a video signal will only output from the COMPONENT VIDEO jacks. Since the
COMPONENT VIDEO jack and Progressive Scan are available only for DVD playback, you cannot enjoy sources other than DVDs
