When making component video connections, make sure
to set the VIDEO OUT SELECT switch on the rear panel
of the player to the right to assign component video

Tip:
If this player is set to output progressive-scan video, it’s
possible that the picture will appear stretched when playing
discs recorded in 4:3 format. This happens when the TV’s
aspect ratio is set at 16:9. To see the picture in its correct
aspect ratio, change the TV setting to 4:3.
If your TV can be switched between 4:3 and 16:9, set this
player to [Interlace] or [Auto progressive]. In Auto
progressive mode, 4:3 discs will be played in Interlace mode,
while discs that are recorded in both 4:3 and 16:9 will play in
interlace mode during the 4:3 sections, and in progressive
mode during the 16:9 parts. Switch your TV’s aspect ratio to
the most suitable setting (for more details, see the manual that
came with your TV). When set to [Auto progressive], you may
see picture disturbance when this player (and the TV) switches
between progressive and interlace modes. This is not a
malfunction of either this player or the TV. Picture disturbance
should only occur when switching from a menu screen to the
main feature, for example.
