Using the Menu System

Tip:

You can select a different picture preset (or set up a different personal preset) for each input. The ANTENNA/CABLE jack counts as a single input.

Video noise reduction Reduce picture “static” or any type of interference. This feature is especially useful for providing a clearer picture in weak analog signal conditions. Press the right arrow to choose between: Off for no noise reduction; Minimum for a softer, smoother picture that retains picture sharpness and detail; Medium for a slightly softer picture than the Minimum setting; Maximum for an even softer, smoother picture than the other settings (the picture detail is somewhat decreased).

Optimized still picture When enabled (box checked), enhances the picture specifically for still frames (for example, if you're watching a slideshow on your HDTV monitor, or if you've paused a frame of a DVD).

Auto Skin Tone When enabled (box checked), minimizes the flesh tone variations of the TV picture.

Film mode (3:2 Pulldown) Automatically detects video sources that were originally recorded on film (like most movies) and subsequently converted to a different format (for TV broadcast, for example). Film mode processes the converted signal so that it looks as close as possible to the original.

Another name for this process is reverse 3:2 pulldown.

Advanced (recommended) enables the feature only when the TV detects that movie playback quality could be improved. Advanced is the default setting.

The On setting should only be used in rare circumstances when the TV is used solely with film-based sources (like DVDs on a non-progressive- scan player).

The Off setting turns off film mode upconversion. Try using this setting if you think the reverse 3:2 pulldown is causing distortions in your picture.

Note: Autoformat and Video noise reduction are available for the CMP1 input only if the signal is 480i.

Picture Presets Displays a choice list that lets you select one of the preset picture settings: Vibrant, Cinematic, Natural, Sports, Videogame, Video Camera or Personal. Choose the setting that is best for your viewing environment. You can set a different picture preset for each input (including one for your regular TV channels).

Black Level Adjusts the brightness of the picture. Color Adjusts the richness of the color.

Contrast Adjusts the difference between the light and dark areas of the picture.

Sharpness Adjusts the crispness of the edges in the picture.

Note: You can adjust sharpness for each channel and input. This is useful if the signal appears fuzzy.

Color Warmth Displays a choice list that lets you set one of three automatic color adjustments: Cool for a more blue palette of picture colors; Normal; or Warm for a more red palette of picture colors. The warm setting corresponds to the NTSC standard of 6500 K.

Tint Adjusts the balance between the red and green levels.

When you change any of these picture settings, the Picture Preset changes to Personal. Use the left or right arrow button to make adjustments. To return to the Picture menu, press the up or down arrow button.
