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 94.
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
.
Audio In settings
External Audio
• Default setting:
Stereo
If the external source is standard stereo, leave set to
Stereo
. If each channel carries a separate soundtrack,
change to
Dual Mono
.
When the external audio is from the DV input, an audio
subcode channel within the DV audio tells the recorder
whether the audio is stereo or dual mono. This has
priority over the setting you make here.
Dual Mono Recording
• Default setting:
L
When recording a dual mono source from an external
input in Video mode or VR mode set to
FINE
/
MN 32
, you
can choose to record either the
L
(left), or the
R
(right)
audio channel.
Note
• If you’re recording in VR mode (except when set to
FINE
/
MN 32
), both channels will be recorded and
you can switch them as you like on playback.
