Digital Cable Ready
The CableCARD is a removable card
distributed by the cable providers that is
inserted in the TV. This enables the “Plug-and-
Play DTV” functionality as agreed between
cable operators and consumer electronics
manufacturers. It allows the decoding of
encrypted or scrambled content delivered
from the cable system. CableCARD
functionality includes conditional access and
copy protection. A CableCARD-enabled
television without a CableCARD inserted
receives high-definition standard TV
broadcasts. When a CableCARD is inserted,
the television receives high-value high-
definition, cable programming.
Pixel Plus 3 HD
Pixel Plus 3 HD offers the unique combination
of ultimate sharpness, natural detail, vivid
colors and smooth natural motion on all
qualities of HD, standard TV signals and
multimedia content, for high definition displays.
Each pixel of the incoming picture is enhanced
to better match the surrounding pixels,
resulting in a more natural picture. Artifacts
and noise in all sources from multimedia to
standard TV and also in highly compressed HD
are detected and reduced ensuring that the
picture is clean and razor sharp.
Ambilight Surround
With lights surrounding the picture Ambilight
3 makes an impressive contribution to the
overall viewing experience with ambient light
on 3 sides to complement the colors and light
intensity of the image on screen. It creates
ambiance, stimulates more relaxed viewing,
and improves perceived picture detail, contrast
and color. Ambilight 3 automatically and
independently adapts the colors of each
screenside according to the changing content
on the screen. With the 3rd Ambilight the top
of the picture is now fully surrounded,
completely immersing you into the content.
Bypacked swivel stand
For maximum freedom of placement, this high-
quality stand is designed specifically for this TV,
and allows easy placement of your Flat TV
without drilling holes in the wall. Enjoy the best

degrees of swivel (20 degrees each side).

USB and Memory Card slot
Instantaneously view and share your movies,
photos and music. The Memory Card slot will
accept cards of type Compact Flash I and II,
Memory Stick, SD Card / Mini SD Card, Smart
Media, Micro Drive (up to 2 GB) and Multi
Media Card. Simply plug the memory card into
slot at the side of the TV, and access the
multimedia files stored on the card. The USB
connector allows access to multimedia files of
most USB-sticks and most digital cameras (USB
memory-class device).
HDMI input
HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB
connection from the source to the screen. By
eliminating conversion to an analog signal, it
delivers an unblemished image. The non-
degraded signal reduces flicker and leads to a
clearer picture. HDMI intelligently
communicates the highest output resolution
with the source device. The HDMI input is fully
backward compatible with DVI sources but
includes digital audio. HDMI uses HDCP copy
protection.
