AUDIO/VIDEO Setting Descriptions: Video

Video Settings

Acompressed (non-HD) video signal may cause what appears to be a “blurry”, “out of focus” or “fuzzy “ picture on a widescreen TV. This is not a malfunction of the TV, but a result of the compressed signal that is sent by cable or satellite. To re-adjust the picture, try the following:

•Adjust your video settings (specifically sharpness) for optimal picture performance.

•Use the Convergence Menu (page 53) to properly align the TV.

•Change the format size (pages 60-61).

Contrast

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.

Brightness

Provides a slider to adjust the overall brightness of the picture.

Sharpness

Provides a slider to adjust the detail and clarity.

Color

Provides a slider to adjust the color intensity.

Tint

Provides a slider to adjust the proportion of red to green.

Color Temp (Color Temperature) Allows you to adjust how white images are displayed. Your choices are:

•Low 6500K or Low (for DTV): White images will have a warm cast to them. This adjustment is an average and can vary due to ambient room lighting, video scene brightness and the TV’s age. The Low 6500K represents the 6500K industry standard for NTSC (non- DTV) pictures.

	• Medium: White images will be balanced
	between the Low (warm) and High (cool)
	settings.
	• High: White images will have a cool cast
	to them. This setting may provide the most
	realistic picture under bright lighting.	AUDIO/VIDEO
	Video Noise
	Reduces minor noise (graininess) in the
	broadcast or input signal.
	This function operates only in 480i mode.
	Film Mode (Automatic)
	Video media uses a video camera created
	at 30 frames per second. Film media uses a
	film camera created at 24 frames per second.	Setting
	Examples of video media are live TV broadcast
	such as news, special events, or video taped
	programs. Examples of film media are motion
	pictures, made-for-TV movies, and many prime
	time programs. Filmed media is converted by
	the broadcaster or home video company to	Descriptions:
	30 frames per second to match TV or video
	standards. This conversion can leave subtle
	“picture artifacts” or conversion errors.
	The settings are On and Off. If you select On,
	the system automatically detects if the signal
	source is Film and corrects for conversion
	errors. If you select Off, the system will never
	correct for conversion errors.	Video
	This function operates only in 480i mode.
Note: A slider will display on-screen for each
setting. The slider has a numeric value, where
63 is the maximum, the mid-range is 31 and the
minimum setting is 0.

Note: For optimal picture performance, it is recommended that you adjust your video settings (specifically contrast and brightness) during initial setup. Certain factors will affect your personal preferences, including room lighting, glare reflections and viewing angles/distance. This also slows phosphor aging. If glare or reflections affect your viewing on a continual basis, you may want to remove the Diamond Shield (please refer to page 69).
