7. Still Mode (Default : Auto)
Select a setting using [U / D], then 
press [ENTER / OK].
Your setting is activated. Auto: Automatically select the best resolution 
setting (“Frame” or “Field”) based on the 
data characteristics of the pictures.
Field: Select “Field” when the pictures are still 
unstable even if “Auto” is selected. “Field” 
stabilises the pictures, although the picture 
quality may become coarse due to the 
limited amount of data.
Frame: Select “Frame” to display relatively 
motionless pictures in higher resolution. 
“Frame” improves the picture quality, 
although it may destabilise the picture due to 
simultaneous output of two fields of data.
Note
• An individual picture on TV screen is called Frame, 
which consists of two separate images called Field. 
Some pictures may be blurred at the “Auto” setting 
in still mode due to their data characteristics.

signal is output for viewing on a PAL system TV.

viewed on an NTSC system TV.
• With discs recorded using the NTSC system, an 
NTSC signal is output for viewing on an NTSC or
