Note to owners of progressive compatible PAL system televisions
•
If you have an LCD/plasma television or LCD projector
Using progressive output, you can enjoy high-resolution video
recorded on media such as DVD-Video. Connect this unit’s
component video output terminals to your television and turn on the
progressive output setting (➔ page 12).
•If you have a CRT (cathode ray tube) television
Use component output with progressive “Off” (Factory setting,
➔ page 35), even if it is progressive compatible, because
progressive output can cause some flickering. This is the same for
multi system televisions using PAL mode.
