To obtain a higher quality picture
Occasionally, some picture noise not usually visible during a normal broadcast may
appear on the TV screen while playing a DVD video disc because the high
resolution pictures on these discs include a lot of information. While the amount of
noise depends on the TV you use with this DVD player, you should generally reduce
the sharpness adjustment on your TV when viewing DVD video discs.
