Pioneer DV-434 Owner's Manual - Page 5

525 line digital progressive-scan component video output 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-434 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 1 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.
