525 line digital progressive-scan
component video output (NTSC)
Compared to standard interlaced video, progressive scan
effectively doubles the amount of video information fed
to your TV or monitor. The result is a stable, flicker-free
image. (Check your TV/monitor for compatibility with this
feature.)
For the very highest picture quality, try watching a movie
on DVD-Video on a progressive-scan compatible TV.
The DV-S77/DV-S737 offers complete flexibility and
compatibility with all types of AV equipment with
composite video and S-Video outputs, as well as
component video outs.
Compatible with a wide range of
DVD digital audio output formats
DVDs are recorded in one of four types of digital audio
formats (as of October 1998). The digital audio output
jacks of this player output Dolby Digital*, DTS**, MPEG,
and linear PCM digital bitstreams.
This player has a function that converts Dolby Digital and
MPEG audio formats into the linear PCM format. This
allows playback of DVDs recorded in Dolby Digital and
MPEG without the need for a decoder.
Digital Noise Reduction PRO
(Video Quality Enhancer)
This new type of DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) for
encoding video (called VQE or Video Quality Enhancer)
enables you to adjust the video settings on a more
detailed and exact level. There are three possible
settings to choose from. These include: TV (CRT),
Projector, and Professional. This technology can
remember which setting you've chosen and employ it at
the proper time.
TruSurround and Virtual Dolby
Digital
TruSurround*** uses technology that simulates
multichannel surround sound using only two speakers.
Virtual Dolby Digital works in conjunction with Dolby
Digital audio sources to create a realistic surround
sound. Virtual Dolby Digital is selected automatically
when Dolby Digital sources are loaded.

playback of DVDs and Video CDs not only at different
speeds but also in both forward and reverse directions.

normal play speed to extremely quick scanning using the
MULTI DIAL on the remote control (page 44).

anywhere on the disc.
