Tech Talk

• Progressive scan: Also called sequential scanning, a progressive-scan system displays all of the image–providing all of the horizontal lines per frame, somewhat than every other line–once every 60th of a second. This method reduces flicker and increases stability. Progressive-scan viewing requires a compatible digital TV.
• Component video: Unlike a single video input, component video maintains the video signal as three separate signals through these three jacks. This connection provides optimum quality. To ensure maximum picture quality, use three video-grade cables for the Y, Pb, and Pr connections.
• Four-head VCR: A VCR requires two video heads to record a picture. With four heads, a VCR can perform special effects like slow motion and freeze frame, and it is optimized for recording and playback in both the SP (2-hour) and SLP (6-hour) modes. You’ll be able to also get a better picture from rental videos with a four-head VCR.
• Hi-fi VHS: The standard VHX format with Dolby Surround Pro-Logic encoded in the stereo audio channels, which produces near-CD-quality sound. You’ll be able to need an A/V receiver with Dolby Surround Pro-Logic decoding to take full advantage of this feature.
• VCD: Video CD (VCD) is a video standard that can store audio and video to a compact disc (somewhat than a DVD disc) the use of MPEG-1 compression. You’ll be able to fit up to 74 minutes of video with audio onto a VCD-formatted CD, but You’ll be able to expect the video quality to be similar to that of a VHS videotape.
