I am confused. My Sony allows selection among progressive, interlaced and cinemotion modes. My DVD also has a progressive mode option. For optimal viewing of DVDs, should both the TV and the DVD player have the progressive mode activated, or is some other combination recommended? Thanks for any help.Ken
Follow Ups:
I use the progressive output on the DVD player and the Cinemotion "PRO" setting on my SONY digital RPTV. This was recommended by my ISF friend who calibrated the set.
If you look in your TV's guide it says the Prog Scan mode is for pics and still images and the Cinemode is for film materal , such as movies ... i have the XBR910 and i was confused about that also .. so i sugguest you use the cinemode when watching movies
Yes, I took "film" to mean actual projection fare rather than digitally mastered movies. I'm probably wrong on this, but because of my interpretation I have been using the "interlaced" option on the Sony and the progressive option on the DVD. Still don't know which way is up. Thanks for the input. Any others confused out there?
Cinemotion is SONY's name for 2/3 pulldown, which is an algorythym
used to undo the extra frame added when films (24 fps) are transferred to video (30 fps). Cinemotion will work with DVDs, laserdiscs, or plain old tape. The result, though subtle, is a smoother, more film-like, presentation.
Thanks, all. So the consensus is to use cinemotion on the Sony. Last question...assuming I use cinemotion, should I use pogressive scan on my DVD player at the same time?
