LG MZ42PZ17 and PAL progressive ?

[Jules Tohpipi]

A friend of mine owns an LG MZ42PZ17 plasma that he bought from Richer Sounds.

He has just bought a Sony PAL/NTSC progressive scan DVD player – model number DVPN S730 – and is getting a rolling picture when engaging the PAL progressive scan mode.

Not having the instruction book in front of me, does anyone know if the LG PZ17 plasma is compatible with PAL progressive ?

If it isn’t, then what are people’s opinions about running PAL (non-progressive) vs outputting in NTSC (with progressive engaged) i.e is the increased number of lines, or the progressive scan more dominant to picture quality ?

Will try and help

I didn't think that the LG Plasma screen's could do Prog Scan on both NTSC / PAL , The first modals could not handle this opition
I could be wrong on the newer models ? ?

As someone who is looking to upgarde from Crt / Plasma
soon , I'm looking also for Pal & NTSC Prog scan
