However, if this is your first DVD product, some of the terms used to describe the features of a DVD player may be unfamiliar.

With an RGB connection (via SCART), you will see greater picture resolution and eliminate many picture imperfections such as the moiré patterns often seen on checkered patterned cloths.

2083124_HK_DMC_1000_OM_ENG.qxp:34241_DMC250_ENG 15/08/08 10:49 Side 25 Notes: Playback features may not be available during the opening credits of a movie. This is intended by the disc author and is not a failure of the DMC 1000. Playback of a DVD with 96kHz/24-bit audio requires the use of circuitry normally used for other features. Accordingly, Slow Play Reverse and Step Advance features are not available with these discs.
