Using the TV’s Features

Future Rating Region

You might notice an option in your Parental control menu that wasn't there before. This is because broadcasters have the capability to add a new rating system for TV programs. These ratings let you deﬁne additional parameters for parental controls. This option and its name are dependent on the content acquired from the broadcaster.

Note: These ratings are available only if the broadcaster is sending them.

Additional Features

There are additional features available unrelated to Parental Controls. These features can be found in other menus.

Picture Processing

ARC 2 advanced picture processing provides edge enhancement plus adaptive spatial/temporal noise reduction, dynamic contrast enhancement, and multi-axis color space correction.

Go to page 38 to adjust picture settings.

Screen Formats

Screen format is the way the picture is displayed on your TV. Press the ZOOM +/- button on your remote to see if a different format is available for the video you are viewing. The format changes as you press the ZOOM buttons and the format type is displayed at the bottom of the screen.

Analog video is sent in a 4/3 format, which your TV displays in a 16/9 format. Most digital video is sent in a 16/9 format which does ﬁll your screen, but sometimes is sent in 4/3 which does not ﬁll your screen. It depends on how the station or device connected to your TV is formatting the video. If there are bars on-screen, press the ZOOM +/- button to try a different format that may eliminate the bars. Some bars can't be removed because of the way the format is sent by the broadcaster.

The different formats available and what they look like follow. Each format is available for analog video, but might not be available for digital video.
