Picture Mode
There are two types of source content in pictures recorded in DVD video discs: fi lm content (pictures recorded from fi lms at 24
frames per second) and video content (video signals recorded at 25 frames in PAL (30 frames in NTSC) per second). Make this
selection according to the type of content being viewed.

playback of fi lm content pictures.
Video The player fi lters video signal, and converts it in the progressive output format appropriately. Suitable for
playback of video content pictures.
Auto Select this position normally. The player automatically detects source content, fi lm or video, of playback
source, and converts that signal in the progressive output format in an appropriate method.
Note
• The player may not be able to detect the source (fi lm or video) of some material. If you notice undesirable picture performance, try
selecting “Film” or “Video”.
