Using the TV's Menu System
Tip:
If the picture is switching screen formats abruptly during
normal TV viewing, switch the Automatic format feature
off.
Contrast Adjusts the difference between the light and dark areas of
the picture.
Black expand (not available on VGA and HDMI) Makes the
picture appear brighter by deepening the black parts of the picture:
Low, Medium or High.
Color Warmth Displays a choice list that lets you set one of three
automatic color adjustments: Cool for a more blue palette of picture
colors; Normal; or Warm for a more red palette of picture colors. The
warm setting corresponds to the NTSC standard of 6500 K.
Sharpness (not available on VGA and HDMI) Adjusts the
crispness of the edges in the picture.
Noise reduction (not available on VGA and HDMI) Reduces
picture “static” or any type of interference. This feature is especially
useful for providing a clearer picture in weak analog signal conditions.
Press the right arrow to choose between: Off for no noise reduction;
Low for a softer, smoother picture that retains picture sharpness and
detail; Medium for a slightly softer picture than the Low setting; High
for an even softer, smoother picture than the other settings (the picture
detail is somewhat decreased).
When you change any of these picture settings, the Picture Preset
changes to Personal. Use the left or right arrow button to make
adjustments. To return to the Picture menu, press the up or down
arrow button.
Advanced picture settings (not available on VGA and HDMI)
Film mode (3:2 Pulldown) Automatically detects video sources
that were originally recorded on fi lm (like most movies) and
subsequently converted to a different format (for TV broadcast,
for example). Film mode processes the converted signal so that it
looks as close as possible to the original. Another name for this
process is reverse 3:2 pulldown.
Advanced (recommended) enables the feature only
when the TV detects that movie playback quality could be
improved. Advanced is the default setting.
The On setting should only be used in rare circumstances
when the TV is used solely with fi lm-based sources (like
DVDs on a non-progressive-scan player).
The Off setting turns off fi lm mode upconversion. Try using
this setting if you think the reverse 3:2 pulldown is causing
distortions in your picture.
Tint Adjusts the balance between red and green levels.
Automatic format When enabled (box checked) the TV
automatically detects the screen format the signal is sending for
each channel, as well as input channels.
Note: Automatic format and Video noise reduction are
available for the CMP1 input only if the signal is 480i.
