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)

Hide (to hide an unused input in the Input Selection window)

Audio Receiver

VCR

Video Recorder Laser Disk Compact Disc

DVD

DTV Satellite/DSS Cable Game Console

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).

If you set up a cable box in VIDEO 1, that input will be labeled

 

automatically and cannot be relabeled until you remove the device

4.Press x or • to select the desired label for that input source. If a particular input is not used, you can select “Hide” as the label, which will cause that input to be “grayed out” in the input list and skipped over when you press the INPUT button on the remote control.

Note: If you select “Hide” for all of the input labels, the POP feature will be disabled. If you then attempt to access the POP feature, the message “Not available” will appear on-screen.

5.To save the new input labels, highlight Done and press ENTER. To revert to the factory default labels, highlight Reset and press ENTER.

Input labeling example:

The screen below left shows the default Input Selection screen (with none of the inputs labeled). The screen below right is an example of how you could label the inputs if you had connected a DVD player to VIDEO 1, Cable TV to VIDEO 2, an audio receiver to VIDEO 3, a video recorder to ColorStream HD1, a DTV set-top box to HDMI 1, and a satellite/DSS set-top box to HDMI 2. Also note that the ColorStream HD2 input is labeled “Hidden,” which means that the input will be skipped over when INPUT or TV/VIDEO is pressed.

from the TV Guide On Screen® setup.

• You cannot select IEEE1394 devices through the Input Selection

window; however, you can select and control IEEE1394 devices

through TheaterNet (see page 45).
