Changing The Scanning Mode; Activating The Recording Mode - JVC RX-DV31SL Manuel D'instructions

Changing the Scanning Mode

This unit supports the progressive scanning system (480p*)
as well as the conventional interlaced scanning system
(480i*).
If your TV has component video jacks and supports
progressive video input, you can enjoy a high quality picture
from the built-in DVD player.
• Refer also to the instruction manuals supplied with your TV.
• You can select the picture source according to the original
picture type (film or video source). See "PICTURE
SOURCE" on page 53.
• Do not change the scanning mode to "PROGRESSIVE" in
the following cases:
– When your TV does not support the progressive video
input.
– When you are not connecting your TV to the unit using a
component video cord.
From the remote control ONLY
Press PROGRESSIVE when "DVD" is selected as the
source.
• Each time you press the button, the scanning mode
changes between "INTERLACE" and "PROGRESSIVE."
INTERLACE Select for conventional TV (initial setting).
PROGRESSIVE Select if your TV with component jacks
supports the progressive video input. The
PROGRESSIVE indicator lights up.
Notes:
• Some progressive TVs and High-Definition TVs are not fully
compatible with this system. When an incompatible picture is played
back, change the scanning mode to "INTERLACE." To check the
compatibility of your TV, contact your dealer.
All JVC progressive TVs and High-Definition TVs are fully
compatible with this system.
• When you select "PROGRESSIVE" as the scanning mode, the
picture does not come out correctly through composite video and
S-video jacks.
* 480p and 480i indicate the number of scanning lines and scanning
format of an image signal.
– 480p indicates 480 scanning lines with progressive format.
– 480i indicates 480 scanning lines with interlaced format.

Activating the Recording Mode

When you play back the multi-channel sources, Recording
mode enables you to record the sounds without missing
surround elements by down-mixing the center and surround
channel signals into the front channel signals.
• When multi-channel software is played back with
Recording mode activated, the sounds are down-mixed
and come out through the front speakers only.
• For DVD AUDIO ONLY: When down-mixing is prohibited
on the disc, this function does not take effect.
On the front panel ONLY
Press and hold REC MODE (SURROUND MODE) until
"RECMODE ON" appears on the display.
The REC indicator lights up on the display.
