Advanced Picture Menu

The Advanced Picture options let you enhance picture performance and adjust picture position. When you select Advanced Picture, a submenu appears with options:

Auto Flesh Tone  Minimizes the flesh tone variations of the TV picture. Choose On or Off, depending on your preference.

Color Temperature  Automatically adjusts the color temperature of the picture. The feature lets you set one of three automatic color adjustments:

•Cool More blue.

•Normal Standard picture color.

•Warm More red.

Video Noise Filter  Displays a list that lets you set one of the three settings that allows you to reduce picture “static” or any type of interference. A different Noise Reduction setting can be stored for each input, but only applies to devices connected to the composite inputs. You can set the Noise Reduction to Frame Comb, Advanced Frame Comb, or Off. The settings are explained in the on-screen help text.

Green Enhance  Makes green “greener” and increases the saturation. For example, nature shows and sporting events are especially enhanced by this feature. The options are On and Off.

Detail Enhance  Makes the edges of the video steeper, sharper, and crisper. There are two options for the this menu: On or Off. If artifacts appear in the video, change the setting to Off.
