Bang & Olufsen BeoSystem 4 with Beo4 Getting Started - Manual (Page 12)

Watch 3D television
Activate 3D or 2D TV
To watch films or other programmes suited for 3D,
you must activate the 3D function and put on the
activated 3D glasses that are available from your
retailer. Switch to 2D mode again to watch TV
that is not suited for 3D, for example, the news.
You can enhance the experience of watching television with 3D technology, for
example, when you want to watch movies, sports or nature films.
Viewing conditions
Place yourself in front of the screen, a little closer
than when you normally watch 2D TV, and use
the 3D glasses. The recommended distance
between your viewing position and the screen
depends on the size of the screen and the picture
resolution. If you move too far to the left or right
of the centre of the screen, or if you move too far
up or down, the quality of 3D TV decreases.
Bring up the PICTURE
menu and select 3D

Bring up the main

SETUP
Select 3D or 2D
Accept and watch 3D or 2D
respectively, or select mode
If automatic 3D signalling is available, the TV automatically switches to 3D
when you select 3D and to 2D when you select 2D. If automatic 3D signalling
is not available, a menu for 3D or 2D mode selection appears on the screen.
See the next page for information about modes.
Important
You will get the best 3D
experience if you darken
the room, for example,
switch off the lights and
draw the curtains.
Especially lights behind
and around the screen
can cause an irritating
effect. We recommend
not to watch 3D TV in
direct sunlight or bright
surroundings.
Television screens and projectors
Dual screen
Subtitles
Not all connected television screens and projectors support 3D technology. If a television screen or a
projector connected to the system does not support 3D, 3D in the 3D DISPLAY menu is greyed out.
If two sources are brought up on the screen at the same time or if teletext is brought up on one side
and a source on the other, the system will always display a 2D mode.
Subtitles may not always be supported.
