Film Mode: To smooth out moving images from interlaced, standard-definition (SD) sources, select Film Mode and set it to Automatic.

In most cases, the DView detects the proper “pull-down” rate and vertical frequency. However, if your source is jittery and/or tearing you may wish to specify the pull-down rate (2:2 or 3:2) to ensure stable processing for that source.

Auto Backlight: Select Auto Backlight from the Setup menu and set it to On to have the DView adjust the Backlight setting automatically, according to the ambient light level in the viewing area.

OSD Timer: Use the or button to set the OSD Timer. This timer controls how long the menus remain on-screen after selecting them. Select from 0 to 60 seconds, in 10-second increments. When you set the OSD to 0, the menus remain on-screen until you hide them by pressing EXIT.

Auto Off: Set Auto Off to 30, 60 or 120 minutes to have the DView go into standby mode when no source signal is present for the selected amount of time.

When Auto Off is set to zero (0) minutes (disabled), the DView remains in normal operating mode, regardless of the presence or absence of an input sync signal.

HDMI CSC (Color Space Control): If the color space of the incoming signal on the HDMI1 or HDMI2 input is known, select HDMI CSC from the Setup menu and set it to RGB or Component.

In most situations, the Auto setting works well.

Use the ISF Calibration menu to perform advanced picture quality adjustments. This menu

should be used by ISF-certified technicians only.

You must enter a passcode to access the ISF Calibration menu.

Note

Picture Adjust: The controls in this menu are identical to those in the main Picture Adjust menu, but are accessible only by entering the ISF Calibration menu passcode. This makes it possible to restore the picture quality settings to what they were when the DView was installed, simply by recalling the “ISF Night” or “ISF Day” preset.
