The On Screen Menus
Your TV has two kinds of menus, the Main menu and the various Tools menus. The Main menu gives you access to most or all of the menu options available on your TV. The Tools menus display a selected number of frequently used menu options that change depending on the screen you are viewing. A Tools menu symbol (T) in the lower right side of the screen indicates that a Tools menu is available.
The Main menu has seven primary categories:
yyPicture | yySound | yyChannel | yySetup |
yyInput | yyApplication | yySupport | |
To view the Main menu, press the MENU button on your remote. To view a Tools menu, press the TOOLS button on your remote.
✎✎ The menu options that appear in the Main menu depend on the Source you have selected. For example, if you have selected the HDMI source, the Channel category will not appear. To see the Channel category, you must first select TV in the Source List.
The Menu options are presented below, arranged by Main menu
categories. A Tools button symbol (t) next to an option name indicates the option is also available in one of the Tools menus.

Preferred Language
Digital channels only.
Digital-TV broadcasts can transmit many audio tracks simultaneously (for example, simultaneous translations of a program into foreign languages).
✎✎ You can only select a language from among the ones being broadcast.
Auto Volume
Because each station has its own broadcasting conditions, the volume may fluctuate each time you change the channel. This feature automatically adjusts the volume of a channel by lowering the sound output when the modulation signal is high or by raising the sound output when the modulation signal is low.
SPDIF Output
The SPDIF (Sony Philips Digital InterFace) outputs an uncompressed digital audio signal when you connect the digital audio jack on the back of the TV to a digital audio in jack on a receiver or home theater.
■■Audio Format: You can select the Digital Audio output (SPDIF) format. The available Digital Audio output format may differ depending on the input source.

■■Audio Delay: Lets you correct timing mismatches between the audio track and the video when you are watching the TV and listening to digital audio output from the TV through an external device such as an AV receiver. When you select Audio Delay, a slider appears. Use the left and right arrow buttons to adjust the slider. Press ENTERE when done (0ms ~ 250ms).
Speaker Select
If you are listening to the sound track of a broadcast or movie through an external receiver, you may hear a sound echo caused by the difference in decoding speed between the TV’s speakers and the speakers attached to your audio receiver. If this occurs, set the TV to External Speaker.
✎✎ When you set Speaker Select to External Speaker, the TV’s speakers are turned off. You will hear sound through the external speakers only. When you set Speaker Select to TV Speaker both the TV’s speakers and the external speakers are on. You will hear sound through both.
✎✎ When Speaker Select is set to External Speaker, the VOLUME and MUTE buttons will not operate and the sound settings will be limited.
✎✎ If there is no video signal, both the TV’s speakers and the external speakers will be mute.

Auto Program
The Auto Program function memorizes all channels that are available over the air or through your cable system and adds them to the Channel List.
