Special Features
Your new High Definition widescreen television has many special features that make it the perfect center of your home
entertainment system, including:
High Definition DLP™ Display System
Your widescreen Mitsubishi HDTV uses Texas Instruments most advanced Digital Light Processing™ technology for
rear projection televisions. This TV is truly a high-performance multimedia monitor uniquely capable of both stunning
high-definition video images and clear, detailed, high-resolution PC images. Your TV is able to accept video signals
from an antenna or direct cable in standard video scanning rates of 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p. It is also able
to accept, through the HDMI 2 connection, signals with PC resolutions from VGA (640 x 480) through XGA (1024 x 768).
When used with a compatible graphics card and controlling software, this TV is also able to accept the custom PC
resolution of 720p (1280 x 720). To connect a PC to HDMI 2, you need a PC video card with DVI or HDMI output. Next
you need to perform NetCommand setup for the HDMI 2 PC input so that the TV knows to apply the correct PC-signal
processing. All of the compatible video and PC signals will be converted to 1080p for final display; some signals will,
however, add black side bars, top and bottom bars, or both to fill the screen, and some signals will display standard
video overscan.
TV Guide On Screen® Interactive Program Guide System
An eight-day on-screen program guide that can be used with cable, over-the-air and CableCARD™ reception. The
subscription-free guide system lists regular, digital and high-definition programming. This system allows multiple
sorting options and easy program recording. Program listings are downloaded while your TV is turned off, so that you
have current program information available every day. Note that when the system is first set up, it may take up to 24
hours to begin to receive TV program listings. It may take one week to receive all eight days of TV program listings.
Digital Cable Ready (CableCARD™)
Your widescreen Mitsubishi HDTV is “Plug-and-Play” ready. It can descramble a cable provider’s one-way digital
signals with the use of a CableCARD security module. The CableCARD is used in place of a traditional cable box
to access digital cable programming (including high definition). Contact your local cable provider for availability
information and service details.
NetCommand ® Home Network Control System
Your widescreen Mitsubishi HDTV offers a new level of networking to combine selected older products with new and
future digital products. NetCommand supports IEEE 1394 connections, Audio Video Control system (AV/C), 5C copy
protection and IR control of selected older products such as VCRs, DVD players, cable boxes or satellite receivers.
NetCommand includes the ability to learn remote control signals directly from many devices, allowing you to customize
the NetCommand system in a way that works best for your viewing
