Chapter 8: Using the TV’s features

Labeling the video input sources

You can label each video input source according to the type of device you connected to each source, from the following preset list of labels:

– (default label) Audio Receiver

VCR

Video Recorder Laser Disk Compact Disc

DVD DTV

SAT (Satellite box) CBL (Cable box)

HD (High-definition device)

Note:

If you set up devices in TheaterNet, the associated inputs are automatically labeled and cannot be relabeled until you remove the device from TheaterNet (see page 45).

Note: Labels for devices you set up in TheaterNet will not be cleared until you remove the device from TheaterNet (see page 45). The screen above right illustrates an example of the Input Labeling screen after it was reset that still shows the VCR label for VIDEO 1 because the VCR was set up in TheaterNet.
