Video Settings

Enter the video adjustment mode using either the Audio/ Video menu or the VIDEO key. Press the VIDEO key repeatedly to cycle through the video options to the one you want to

change. Use to change settings.

Note: A slider displays on screen for some settings. When the slider is displayed, it represents numeric values, with 63 as the maximum, 31 as the mid- point, and 0 as the minimum.

◊Picture Mode: Set the Picture Mode first before adjusting other settings, as each Picture Mode stores its own values for Contrast, Brightness, and Color Temperature. Picture Modes allow you to optimize the image for different lighting conditions. The Picture Modes are:

•Bright: Suited for most daytime viewing.

•Natural: Suited for most nighttime viewing.

•Brilliant: The default setting. For use under strong light.

◊Contrast (Bright/Natural/Brilliant): Provides a slider to adjust the white-to-black level. Low contrast shows a variety of shades in darker images, while high contrast shows darker images more uniformly black and makes colors appear more vibrant. In most home lighting situations, a medium contrast looks best. High con- trast is good for brightly lit environments.

◊Brightness (Bright/Natural/Brilliant): Provides a slider to adjust the overall brightness of the picture.

◊Color: Provides a slider to adjust color intensity.

◊Tint: Provides a slider to adjust the red-to-green ratio.

◊Sharpness: Provides a slider to adjust the detail and clarity.

◊Color Temperature (Bright/Natural/Brilliant): Allows you to adjust how white is displayed.

•Low: White images have a warm cast. This adjustment is an average and can vary due to ambient room lighting, video scene brightness, and the TV’s age. Natural/Color Temp at the low setting displays video at the 6500K industry standard for NTSC pictures.

•High: White images have a cool cast. This setting may provide the most realistic picture under bright lighting.

◊PerfectColor™: Lets you adjust the intensity of any or all of six colors (Magenta, Red, Yellow, Green, Cyan and Blue) to create color balance for the current image source. PerfectColor settings are memorized for each

TV input or device. Select the PerfectColor option and press ENTER to open the adjustment screen.

Individual sliders for each color are displayed. Highlighted text shows which slider you are adjusting. Press CANCEL while in the PerfectColor screen to reset all colors to the default settings.
