Teletext

What is teletext?

Teletext broadcasts pages of information and
entertainment to specially equipped TV. Your TV receives
teletext signals broadcast by a TV network, and decodes
them into graphical format for viewing. News, weather
and sports information, stock exchange prices and
programme previews are among the many services
available.

Turning teletext on/off

Select a TV channel or external source

providing a teletext programme.

Press m to display the teletext.

Many stations use the TOP operating system, while
some use FLOF (e.g., CNN). Your TV supports both
these systems. The pages are divided into topic groups
and topics. After switching on the teletext, up to 2,000
pages are stored for fast access.
If you select a programme with no teletext signal, “No
Teletext available” displays.
The same message displays during other modes if no
teletext signal is available.

Using the MHEG-5 application
Some services bring you programmes with the MHEG
application encoded, letting you experience DTV
interactively. When provided, the MHEG-5 application will
start when you press m.
NOTE
To view MHEG-5 content through a network, perform the
ethernet settings from “Setup” > “View setting” > “Ethernet
setup”.
The factory preset value for the “Ethernet setup” is “Auto”. If
the TV does not automatically connect to MHEG-5 content,
go to “Menu” > “Setup” > “View setting” > “Ethernet setup” >
select “Change”. Follow the screen prompts and perform each
setting.
You can view some MHEG-5 content even if you do not
perform the ethernet settings. Futhermore, the ethernet settings
allow you to view additional content such as interactive content.
You cannot view MHEG-5 content when MHEG-5 content is
not broadcast even if you perform the appropriate ethernet
settings. Carefully check the broadcast programme.
