P.SCAN(Progressive Scan) Function  
Unlike a regular Interlace Scan in which two fields of picture information are alternated to  
create the entire picture (odd scan lines, then even scan lines), Progressive Scan uses one  
field of information (all lines displayed in one pass) to create a clear and detailed picture  
without visible scan lines.  
While the player is in the Stop mode, hold the P.SCAN button down for longer  
than 1 second.  
The selection switches back and forth between "P.SCAN" and "I.SCAN" each time the button is held  
down for a minimum of 1 second.  
•
The previous mode is indicated in the display first, followed by the selected mode in about a second.  
•
What is Progressive (or Non-Interlaced) Scanning?  
Interlaced Scan (1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS)  
Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)  
In interlaced-scan video, a frame consists of two  
interlaced fields (odd and even), where each field  
contains every other horizontal line in the frame.  
The odd field of alternating lines is displayed first, and  
then the even field is displayed to fill in the alternating  
gaps left by the odd field to form a single frame.  
One frame, displayed every 1/30th of a second, contains  
two interfaced fields, thus a total of 60 fields are  
displayed every 1/60th of a second each.  
The progressive scanning method scans one full frame of  
video consecutively down the screen, line by line.  
As opposed to the interlaced scanning process by which a  
video image is drawn in a series of passes, you get an  
entire image drawn at one time.  
The progressive scanning method is desirable for dealing  
with moving objects. A camera that has the ability to  
capture moving objects is called a "full frame shutter  
camera".  
The interlaced scanning method is intended for capturing  
a still object.  
Note  
This function works only on TVs equipped with component video inputs (Y, Pr, Pb) that support Progressive  
Video. (It does not work on TVs with conventional component inputs, i.e., non-progressive scan TVs.)  
Depending on the brand and model of your TV, this function may not work.

Adjusting the TV Aspect Ratio (Screen Size)  
The horizontal to vertical screen size ratio of conventional TVs is 4:3, while that of wide screen and high  
definition TVs is 16:9. This ratio is called the aspect ratio. When playing DVDs recorded in different  
screen size, you should adjust the aspect ratio to fit your TV or monitor.  
✱✱For a standard TV, select either "4:3LB" or "4:3PS" option according to  
personal preference. Select "16:9" if you have a wide screen TV.  
: Select this to view a 16:9 picture in the full-screen  
mode on your wide screen TV.  
•You can enjoy the wide screen aspect.  
WIDE  
: Select this to play a 16:9 picture in the letter box  
mode on a conventional TV.  
4:3LB  
(4:3 Letterbox)  
•Black bars will appear at the top and bottom of the screen.  
4:3PS  
: Select this to play a 16:9 picture in the pan & scan  
mode on a conventional TV.  
(4:3 Pan&Scan)  
•You can see the central portion of the screen only (with the  
sides of the 16:9 picture cut off).  
• If a DVD is in the 4:3 ratio, you cannot view it in wide screen.  
• Since DVD discs are recorded in various image formats, they will look different depending on  
the software, the type of TV, and the TV aspect ratio setting.
