Digital

Television

Digital Television (D'IV) broadcasts are nlow available in 10 major U.S. markets.

Broadcasts are in both high definition (HDTV) and standard definition (SDTV). The

HDTV signal formats are 1080i (interlaced scan) and 720p (progressive scan). SDTV

signal formats are 480i and 480p.

SDTV-Compatible

(480p/480i)

SDTV-compatible

TV models process and display the standard definition output with

the use of a Panasonic DTV-STB at 480 lines, interlaced or progressive scan. When

DTV programming

is available, you can view it in the standard format, either 4:3

aspect ratio or 16:9 aspect ratio.

DTV

Compatibility

This PTV is capable of displaying only the 480p/480i

SDTV signal using the

Panasonic DTV-STB,

model TU-DST50

or TU-DST51.

In order to view DTV

programming, the DTV-STB must be connected to TV component video inputs (Y, PB,

PR) and audio inputs and in component 1 or 2 mode. A DIV signal must be available

in your area and the DTV-STB must be tuned to the proper channel.

Progressive

Scan

Progressive

scan de-interlaces

the incoming signal and progressively

scans the

image. This allows you to sit very close to the TV and not see the thin black horizontal

scan lines (venetian blind effect) associated with an interlaced picture.
