In Reply to: Progressive confusion...Panny RP91 & Sony 36HS510 Wega posted by kjmarte on February 18, 2004 at 10:35:58:
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
Follow Ups:
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?
