6.1 Correcting picture deviations

It is possible for stations to be received with differing levels of chrominance, picture sharpness and contrast, even though the settings on the individual programme positions are identical. For this reason, your TV set enables you to correct the value for each programme position and/or to select a picture correction function (CTI, noise reduction).

Explanation

The picture menu contains all settings which can change the picture.

If the pictures received from a station are unsharp, this function permits you to correct the picture sharpness for an individual programme position and to store this adjustment.

The picture sharpness can be changed with the

This noise reduction function can be switched on if the picture contains snow or noise.

The noise reduction function can be switched OFF or A1 or A2.

CTI stands for Colour Transient Improvement and improves the transitions between different coloured areas of the picture, making the picture appear much sharper. The CTI function is effective for both transmis- sions received by way of the aerial input and for signals received via the AV sockets. CTI also provides a visible improvement when playing back from a video recorder.

However, in certain applications (such as playing back from an S-VHS video recorder), the CTI function may just have the opposite effect.

When playing back from such recorders, CTI can result in a lower-quality picture. For this reason, this menu permits you to switch off the CTI function for specific programme positions.

In this second picture menu, the chrominance, colour offset and contrast can be corrected individually for each programme position.

In our example, the chrominance of Programme 1 is to

be diminished. Hold down the

-

key until the colour

 

 

intensity is the same as in programme position 3.

The chrominance adjustment range is -15 to +15.

If no other values are to be changed, then press the OK key to store the new setting.
