A/V Setting Descriptions, continued

Video Settings

◊ 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. In most home lighting situations,

a medium contrast looks best. High contrast is good for brightly lit environments.

◊ Brightness

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

◊ Sharpness

Provides a slider to adjust the detail and clarity.

◊Film Mode (Auto) - On or Off

On is the automatic setting and will automatically detect and apply film decoding correction for signals that originated on 24 frames per second film cameras and then were converted for broadcast to 30 frames per second video.

When the original signals originated on 30 frames per second video cameras, the On setting will automatically apply video decoding, the same as used with the Off setting. Try the On setting when the TV seems to have difficulties and adds too many jagged edges to the images.

Film Mode is not effective for progressive scan (480p) devices, and high definition signals.

◊ 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: 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.

•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.

◊Video Noise

Reduces minor noise (graininess) in the broadcast received on Ant-1 and Ant-2 or Inputs 1-3 and Component 1 and 2. Use standard with good quality signals.

◊ DefinEdge VSM

Selected image outlines are emphasized, resulting in sharper images. When turned Off, the velocity scanning modulation and edge enhancer functions are prevented. The default is On.

NOTE: A slider will display on-screen for most settings. When the slider is displayed it has a numeric value, where 63 is the maximum, 31 is the mid-point and 0 is the minimum.

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 pages 86-88).

Using the VIDEO Button on the Remote Control To adjust Video settings directly with the remote control:

1.Press VIDEO to cycle through the available settings.

2.Press ADJUST or to adjust the setting. After

5 seconds of inactivity, the setting display will disappear.

Known for their innovative features and exceptional image quality, these models were well-regarded for both functional performance and design.

One of the most notable characteristics of the WS series is their use of DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology. This allows for sharper images and more vibrant colors compared to traditional CRT televisions. DLP technology also reduces issues like pixelation, offering a smoother image overall. The WS-65615 and WS-65615A feature a large 65-inch screen, delivering an immersive viewing experience perfect for movie nights and gaming. Meanwhile, the WS-65515 and WS-65515A provide a slightly smaller 55-inch display, which still offers remarkable visuals without taking up as much space.

All models are equipped with a High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) input, ensuring compatibility with modern devices like Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, and streaming devices. This connectivity is crucial for those looking to enhance their entertainment systems with the latest technology. Additionally, the WS series supports various audio-video formats, giving users flexibility in how they enjoy their content.

Another key feature is the incorporation of a 3D-ready capability, making these TVs future-proof for a time when 3D content was gaining traction. This aspect attracted cinema enthusiasts who wanted to bring an enhanced experience home. The models also include a built-in digital tuner, allowing users to access over-the-air broadcasts without needing an external box.

The WS-65615 and WS-65515 models additionally boast a stylish and slim design that fits well within modern living spaces, combining aesthetics with functionality. Their lightweight construction allows for easier installation and setup.

Overall, the Mitsubishi Electronics WS-65615, WS-65515, WS-65615A, WS-55515, and WS-65515A televisions deliver a compelling mix of advanced technologies, user-friendly features, and stunning visuals. While they may be considered legacy models today, they still exemplify the quality and innovation Mitsubishi Electronics strived for in enhancing the home viewing experience.
