Notes
· Since the high quality pictures on a DVD disc contain a lot of
information, picture noise may appear. In this case, adjust the
sharpness (SHARP) in the VIDEO ADJUST menu. (See page 20.)
· Connect your DVD player directly to your TV. Connecting the
DVD player through other video equipment will cause unwanted
picture noise.
