Customizing Input Names

When you have multiple devices connected to your TV, it can become difficult to remember the inputs to which they are connected. Your TV features the ability to customize the names of these inputs to make them easy to remember. (Custom names have a 10-character limit.)

For example, HDMI 1 could be renamed as My Blu-ray.

You can also remove unused inputs from the input list, making selection of the correct input faster.

To customize an input name:

1.Press the MENU button on the remote. The on-screen menu is displayed.

2.Use the Arrow buttons on the remote to highlight the Input icon and press OK. The Input menu is displayed.

3.Use the Arrow buttons to highlight Name Input and press OK.

4.Use the Arrow buttons on the remote to highlight the input source you wish to rename, then press OK.

5.Use the Arrow buttons to highlight Custom Label and press OK.

The on-screen keyboard is displayed.

6.Use the Arrow and OK buttons to spell the custom input name.

When you are finished, highlight OK and press OK.

7.Press EXIT.

Setting the Screen Aspect Ratio

The TV can display images in five different modes: Normal, Wide, Zoom, Panoramic, and Stretch. Each mode changes the picture according to the content’s original format.

Use the table on the next page to determine the best aspect ratio for your content type. Areas in red will not be visible on your TV screen.

You can also quickly access the Wide menu by pressing the WIDE button on the remote.

To adjust the screen aspect ratio:

1.Press the OK button on the remote. The on-screen menu is displayed.

2.Use the Arrow buttons on the remote to highlight the Wide icon and press OK. The Wide menu is displayed.

3.Use the Left/Right Arrow buttons on the remote to highlight the screen mode you want to display, then press OK:

Normal preserves the content’s original aspect ratio. Since the 4:3 aspect ratio is not large enough to fill the TV’s screen, black bars are added to the left and right of the display image.

Wide stretches a 4:3 aspect ratio picture to the edges of the screen. Since the picture is being stretched, the display image may appear distorted. If the program is already formatted for widescreen viewing (1.85:1 or 2.35:1), then black bars will appear on the top and bottom of the display image.

Zoom expands images with black bars to fit the screen.

Panoramic expands the display image to fill the screen. Images may appear wider than intended. If you are watching widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1) content, black bars will still appear on the top and bottom of the display image. This option is only available when the TV is displaying a 480i/480p source.

Stretch expands the display image to fill the screen. Images may appear wider than intended. If you are watching widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1) content, black bars will still appear on the top and bottom of the display image. This option is only available when the TV is displaying a 720p/1080i/1080p source.
