If your TV supports ‘Progressive Scan’ mode, you
can choose to set the DVD recorder’s output
accordingly to enjoy better video quality.
‘Progressive Scan’ mode differs from the
‘Interlaced Scan’ mode in how a video image is
updated. In ‘Progressive Scan’ mode, scan lines
for an image are refreshed in every pass and by a
sequential order. In the ‘Interlaced Scan’ mode,
image is updated by alternating sets of odd and
even scan lines.

Setting TV MODE/SCART Bypass
The ‘TV MODE/SCART Bypass’ feature allows
you to watch videos/programs from the SCART
source (decoder, VCR, etc.) directly at the push of
a button.
You need to activate the function via the Setup
menu before using the TV (MODE) button on
remote control.
After you press TV (MODE) to view videos/
programs from the SCART source, only
POWER and TV (MODE) buttons on the
remote will be available to use. You can only
press POWER to switch off the DVD
recorder, or press TV (MODE) again to return
previous viewing mode.
After you press TV (MODE) to view videos/
programs from the SCART source, status
indicator will light up in the display window.
Depending on the cable manufacturers, the
SCART cable you use to connect an external
device to the DVD recorder may not be able to
detect all signals transferred via this
connection. If you have activated the ‘TV
MODE/SCART Bypass’ function via the Setup
menu, and still have problem using the feature,
try to use a new SCART cable.
Interlaced Scan Mode:
If you accidentally set ‘Progressive’ as the video
output mode when the DVD recorder is not
connected to a progressive-scan-compatible TV,
you may lose the video signal on your TV instantly.
To recover the problem, switch off the DVD
recorder, and then switch it on again. After the
DVD recorder is switched on (in about 30
seconds), press
(right direction button), 5, 0, 2,
0, on remote control, then press ENTER. The
recorder will then be automatically switched off.
The DVD recorder’s TV output will be restored to
default when you switch on the recorder next time.
Setting HDMI Resolution
With an integrated video upscaler, this DVD recorder
can automatically enhance resolution of the output
picture up to 1080p (1080 scan lines, Progressive
mode). Select a resolution mode supported by your
TV to enjoy sharper, clearer image.
The HDMI resolution setting may affect the
video output mode of this recorder.
If the HDMI resolution mode is set to ‘576p’, ‘720p’,
‘1080i’ or ‘1080p’, the recorder’s video output format
will be automatically switched to the progressive scan
