Optimizing video images

After the video device is connected properly and the image is on the screen, you can optimize the image using the onscreen menus.

Change the Aspect ratio. Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. TV screens are usually 1.33:1, also known as 4:3. HDTV and most DVDs are 1.78:1, or 16:9. Choose the option that best fits your input source in the menus, or press the Resize button on the remote to cycle through the options.

Adjust the Keystone, Contrast, Brightness, Color, or Tint in the Picture menu.

Select a different Color Temperature or use the Color Control to adjust the gain and offset of the red, green, and blue color.

Select a specific Color Space or Gamma.

Select a different Video Standard. Auto tries to determine the standard of the incoming video. Select a different standard if necessary.

Turn overscan on to remove noise around the video image. Fine tune component inputs using the TrueLife™ adjustments. Choose High Power to maximize the light output.

Make sure your DVD player is set for a 16:9 television. See your DVD player’s user’s guide for instructions.
