changes due to the process for
converting the picture width.

shown in the 4:3 LB mode even if
you select the 4:3 PS mode.
• When progressive scan mode is
active, the PROGRESSIVE indicator
is lit. Note that the color of indication
changes depending on this setting,
source type and the unit's status.
