Picture Presets

Picture Presets displays a choice list that lets you select one of the six preset picture settings: Vibrant (Day), Natural, Cinematic (Night), Videogame, Professional, and Personal.

Choose your setting based on the degree of lighting in your room. After you select a preset, the settings listed to the right are adjusted automatically.

Tip

To create a temporary personal setting, make your changes and when the message appears asking if you want to save the setting, select No. The preset is saved until you change the channel or input.

If you choose Personal, you can customize each picture quality setting to your desired level, and a message appears asking if you want to save those settings. After you’ve saved your personal settings, you can go back into the menu and select a different picture preset. For example, if you normally use Personal but want to watch a show in Vibrant (Day) lighting, choose Vibrant (Day), watch the show, and then afterwards return to your customized settings by choosing Personal. The PRESETS button on the remote works with Picture Presets. Go to the Remote chapter for more information.
