Notes
Some DVD software contains both Video and Film. For
instance, DVDs of movies may contain the movie taken on film,
and a Making of sequence taken on video.
If you select VIDEO and play back a DVD that contains Film
based software, sections of images may be unclear.
When you select AUTO, sections of images may become
unclear. This happens when the output signal tag (progressive/
interlace) is not correct on the software. If this happens, set the
conversion mode to VIDEO.

standar d 4:3 aspect ratio television. If you can change the
aspect ratio on your pr ogressive for mat (525p) compatible
TV, change the setting on your TV , not the player .
FULL: when you can change the aspect ratio on your

x MODE (Conversion Modes)
DVD softwar e can be divided into two types: film based
softwar e and video based softwar e. Video based softwar e
is derived fr om TV, such as dramas and sit-coms, and
displays images at 30 frames/60 fields per second. Film
based softwar e is derived fr om film and displays images
at 24 frames per second. In or der for these images to
appear natural on your scr een when output in
PROGRESSIVE mode (60 frames per second), the
progressive video signal needs to be conver ted to match
the type of softwar e that you ar e watching. For mor e
infor mation about conversion modes, see Pr ogressive
