SETTING THE VIDEO SETUP
When selecting the VIDEO OUT
• This unit has three types of video jacks (COMPONENT, S-VIDEO, (composite) VIDEO).
For some countries like Europe, this unit has the A/V SCART OUTPUT, too.
• Depending on how to connect the video jack(s) to the A/V amplifier/receiver/TV, you should set the VIDEO OUT correctly.
Notes:
• The COMPONENT VIDEO OUTs of this unit can output either conventional interlacing (simply called Interlaced) video signals
or progressively scanned (simply called Progressive) video signals (that can reproduce high-density pictures with less flicker).
Therefore, when connecting the COMPONENT VIDEO OUTs to the Interlaced (non-progressive) COMPONENT VIDEO INs of
your TV, projector, etc., you should set the VIDEO OUT to the COMPOSITE.
When connecting them to the Progressive COMPONENT VIDEO INs, you should set to the P-SCAN YPbPr.
• If the VIDEO OUT setting does not match to the video connetion you made, no picture or abnormal picture may be shown.
Should this happen, press the SETUP button to exit the setup mode, then press the PROGRESSIVE SCAN button calmly
and repeatedly until the picture will be shown, or connect your component to the (composite) VIDEO OUT that can output the
normal video signals regardless of the VIDEO OUT setting. (Refer to "SELECTING THE VIDEO OUTPUT SIGNAL" on
page 27.)
• Because the A/V SCART OUTPUT connector of this unit can output RGB or composite (regular) video signals, you can set the
VIDEO OUT to SCART-RGB or COMPOSITE depending on your TV. (For details, refer to the operating instructions of your
TV.)
When selecting the TV TYPE
• When you connect a normal TV with 4:3 aspect ratio to the unit, select either "4:3 LETTERBOX" or "4:3 PAN-SCAN" and
when you connect a wide TV with 16:9 aspect ratio, select "16:9 WIDE".
