Auto Progressive Switches to progressive scan when 16:9 DVDs are played,4:3 DVDs uses interlace setting. Your TV/ monitor must be compatible with progressive scan to use this setting.
If this DVD Receiver is set to output progressive-scan video, its possible that the picture will appear stretched when playing discs recorded in 4:3 format. This happens when the TVs aspect ratio is set at 16:9. To see the picture in its correct aspect ratio, change the TV setting to 4:3. If your TV can not be switched between 4:3 and 16:9, set this DVD Receiver to [Interlace] or [Auto progressive]. In Auto progressive mode, 4:3 discs will be played in Interlace mode, while discs that are recorded in both 4:3 and 16:9 will play in interlace mode during the 4:3 sections, and in progressive mode during the 16:9 parts. Switch your TVs aspect ratio to the most suitable setting (for more details, see the manual that came with your TV). When set to [Auto progressive], you may see picture disturbance when this player (and the TV) switches between progressive and interlace modes. This is not a malfunction of either this player or the TV. Picture disturbance should only occur when switching from a menu screen to the main feature, for example.

You can switch the kind of S-Video signal output from the SVideo outputs. If you connected your TV with an S-Video cord, in rare cases the TV picture may appear stretched.

The digital output connector is the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPT) connector. Recording digital sound signals from sources connected to the digital input connectors using digital recording equipment connected to the digital output is possible unless: The recording is against SCMS (Serial Copy Management System) rules (for details of SCMS rules, refer to the manual of the digital recording equipment), The digital signals are in bitstream format (the recordable digital signal format is PCM two channel digital stereo sound signals), or The sampling frequency is out of the recordable range of the recording equipment (for recordable sampling frequency, refer to the manual of the digital recording equipment). Note that the maximum signal frequency output from the DVD Receiver is 48 kHz.
Release the recording pause set in step 1 to start recording. Start playback of the selected source in step 2.
I Analog recording from a DVD Video played DVD using the DVD Receiver
The digital sound signals are converted to analog signals and output to the analog output jacks unless the DVD video is recorded in the DTS Surround. Although the speakers can reproduce DTS Surround sounds, DTS signals are not output to the analog output jacks.

If you select another input source during recording, the selected source will be recorded. Sound effects described on pages 44 to 50 do not affect the recorded sounds.
I Recording the Picture and Sound From Different Sources at the Same Time
The picture from the playing VIDEO 2/CDR/PC source is output through the VIDEO OUT jacks when you select any audio source (TAPE/MD, FM, or AM) or TV/LINE. Play the VIDEO 1 source and select TAPE/MD, FM, AM, or TV/LINE, then you can record the picture from the VIDEO 1 source and the sound from the selected input source at the same time, using the recording equipment connected to the VIDEO 2 jacks.
Controlling other components connected to the DVD Receiver
The remote controller has two learning functions. One is entering the signal number for a remote controller of another brand that is pre-programmed. Another is a normal learning function that enables the remote controller to learn the codes from other remote controllers.

Caution

With some brands components, some buttons may not work correctly. In this case, program the command separately.
