ADJUSTING THE PICTURE MODE

Select the video quality mode during playback. You can adjust various options such as Contrast, Brightness, Sharpness, etc.

The following filter settings can be adjusted even if the picture mode is in “Standard” mode. These settings can be used to re-duce the noise level or set the black level of the video image on the screen.

Block NR (Block Noise Reduction): Set this option to “Low”, “Mid” or “High” to reduce the block noise produced in the MPEG compression process which may appear especially on fast-moving pictures. Select “Off” to retain current settings.

Mosquito NR (Mosquito Noise Reduction): Reduce mosquito (scattering) noise produced in the MPEG compression process by selecting “Low”, “Mid” or “High” option. Select “Off” to retain current settings.

Black Level: Black level determines the amount of light a picture display emits for the darkest areas of an image. Select “On” to display deeper, richer black than in “Off” setting. Black Level control is only valid in composite output.
