Cure for Sore Eyes

Traditionally, video signals are transmitted using an interlacing format where two separate frames are transposed to create one single frame. This results in flicker that can lead to eye fatigue and soreness. This flicker problem is eliminated with the progressive scanning process where video images are transmitted in one single complete frame. The 42PW450  is compatible with all progressive scanning signals from high quality DVD players and HDTV decoders, andother high-end video equipment to produce brilliant flicker-free images.
