704 question

Trying to remember, with some players you have to press step forward or
backward to get the picture on CLV LD's.

Yes, same here on my 704, Grey/Black screen when paused. To get a
still frame you have to press 'step' The blue screen is on 'lower'
models, like the 504.

thats odd, I thought the 704 had trick play features? I have a cld-79
which is basically the same machine and I get a still image when I
pause.

ISTR that 704s can do both, depending on the selected mode.

As several have already mentioned, the only way you get a picture on
the 704 during a 'pause" is if you actually perform a "Freeze Frame"
by pushing "Step" instead of "Pause"
