Component video output
[GENERAL q Video Out q Comp. Video]
This setting allows the selection of interlaced (Interlace) or
progressive-scan (Progressive) video from the component
video outputs.
Progressive-scan video provides a better, clearer picture.
However, it is not supported by every television or monitor,
and you should ensure that this is supported fully before
turning on this option.
< When your TV isn't compatible with progressive scan, never
select "Progressive". No picture will be shown on the
monitor.
In case you select "Progressive" by mistake, connect your TV
via the VIDEO OUT jack or S-VIDEO jack to display the Setup
menu and change the setting to "Interlace", or initialize the
settings (see page 5).
< When this HDMI output is turned on, even if progressive scan
has been selected for the component video outputs, an
interlaced signal is output from the COMPONENT VIDEO
terminals.

captioning information and show the closed captions (on a
suitably-equipped television).
Turn this function either ON or OFF.
Still mode

picture obtained when the DVD playback is paused.

Field
Usually provides a sharp still picture. But depending on the
disc, the image might be shaky even when "Field" is selected.
Frame
