Technical Information

Closed Caption (CC)

For viewing the CC of digital broadcasting, set the aspect to FULL (If viewing with H-FILL, JUST, ZOOM or 4:3; characters might be cut off).

The CC can be displayed on the TV if the receiver (such as a set-top box or satellite receiver) has the CC set On using the Component or HDMI connection to the TV.

If the CC is set to On on both the receiver and TV when the signal is 480i (except for the HDMI connection), the CC may overlap on the TV.

If a digital program is being output in analog format, the CC data will also be output in analog format.

If the recorder or output monitor is connected to the TV, the CC needs to be set up on the recorder or output monitor.

Press the FORMAT button to cycle through the aspect modes. This lets you choose the aspect depending on the format of the received signal and your preference. (p. 20)

Another standout feature is the Viera Image Viewer, which allows users to view their photos and videos directly on the television using SD memory cards. This feature enhances the television's utility beyond traditional broadcasting, making it a fantastic centerpiece for family gatherings and social events.

These models also include a 600Hz Sub-field Drive technology, which improves motion clarity, reducing blur during fast-paced scenes such as sports or action movies. This technology ensures that viewers can enjoy a smooth cinematic experience without sacrificing detail.

Moreover, the TC-P46S1, TC-P50S1, and TC-P54S1 are designed with energy efficiency in mind, given the increasing emphasis on environmentally friendly electronics. They are equipped with energy-saving features that help reduce power consumption without compromising performance.
