Audio Delay Try Now

This setting helps correct timing mismatches between the audio and video tracks when you are watching TV and listening to audio through a digital audio device. Enabling the feature displays a slide bar that you can use to adjust the delay by up to 250ms.

●● Dolby Digital Comp Try Now

Some digital TV programmes provide 5.1-channel Dolby audio. This TV converts Dolby audio to stereo audio so that it can play the sound through the TV’s speakers. There are two methods to choose from. RF is for better sound at lower volumes, and Line is for higher volumes.

●● Auto Volume Try Now

When you change channels, video sources, or content, Auto Volume automatically adjusts the TV's volume level so that the volume level remains the same for all sources. For example, if you switch from a streaming video application to a Blu-ray player or a favourite TV channel, Auto Volume can modify the volume up to 12db to equalise the sound.

The Auto Volume function has two settings: Normal and Night. Normal applies a normal level of volume adjustment. Night applies a slightly lower volume level and is ideal for late-night TV viewing. If you want to use the volume control of a connected source device to control the sound, deactivate the Auto Volume function. When you use the Auto Volume function with a source device, the device's volume control may not function properly.
