Yagami Posted April 22, 2002 Posted April 22, 2002 From what i see in this forum, it seems pal progressive is better. Why is that so?
FookLai Posted April 22, 2002 Posted April 22, 2002 I think it is because PAL is 540p whereas NTSC is 480p.
Deepblue1624705734 Posted April 22, 2002 Posted April 22, 2002 I think it is because we have many Pal discs in our collection that drives us to techno front. die die must make Pal progressive work! Banzai!
jtmlc Posted April 23, 2002 Posted April 23, 2002 I think it is because PAL is 540p whereas NTSC is 480p. The higher speed of the PAL gives better pic quality...but the audio sounds a bit weird....slightly higher pitch
variablefeedback Posted May 5, 2002 Posted May 5, 2002 har? I thought Progressive scan is a software thingy encryted in NTSC DVDs only? Or you guys talking about doing the progressive scanning processing on a normal picture signal? Like most 100Hz TV are doing to our PAL TV signals. Pls enlighten. Thanks.

Or you guys talking about doing the progressive scanning processing on a normal picture signal? Like most 100Hz TV are doing to our PAL TV signals. Pls enlighten. Thanks. Progressive scanning must be carried out on normal interlaced signals, be they in PAL or NTSC formats, through a hardware deinterlacer which combines the odd and even interlaced fields into a single frame. 100hz scanning carried out in our more expensive TVs on PAL signals is not progressive scanning at all as the signals are still in interlaced form after processing. Those TVs with progressive scanning functions do have a built-in interlaced which would only work well on NTSC signals from your R1 & R3 DVDs. You can force the TV to carry out progressive scanning on PAL signals from TV broadcasts and R2/R4 DVDs but the picture quality somehow does not look as good as that of 100hz scanning instead. If you want to know more about progressive scanning, there is no site better than this: http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/volume_7_4/dvd-benchmark-part-5-progressive-10-2000.html
