Viewing Teletext

Switch to Teletext

How to use

In all cases, it is possible to navigate the pages using buttons on the remote control, but because the commands available must apply to all manufacturers of DVB equipment, some on screen commands may not correspond exactly to the remote control buttons. For example:

You can enjoy news, weather forecasts and subtitles, etc. (depending on the broadcaster)

Note

•

As soon as you switch to a DVB channel with links to a teletext service, software is downloaded in the background to enable the teletext function. This means that when switching to a DVB channel, you should wait for approximately 5 seconds before pressing the TEXT button - this will allow the software to download. If you press the TEXT button before download is complete, there will be a short delay before the text screen is displayed.

•

While navigating DVB teletext, you will find there is a short delay when moving between pages while the page downloads. There is often a prompt shown somewhere on the page (for example "Loading") to let you know that this is happening.

DVB (digital broadcasting) mode

DVB teletext services

DVB teletext services differ greatly from analogue teletext. When you switch to a DVB teletext service, the images you see can contain graphics and text, laid out and controlled in a manner decided by the broadcaster.

•

You can check if the programme has teletext information.

HDMI connection

(∗1): The HDMI logo is displayed on HDMI-compliant equipment. (∗2): Enquire at your local digital equipment retailer shop.

HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) allows you to enjoy high-definition digital images and high-quality sound by connecting the TV unit and the equipment. HDMI-compatible equipment (∗1) with an HDMI or DVI output terminal, such as a set top box or a DVD player, can be connected to the HDMI terminal using an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable. About connections, see "External Equipment" (p. 46).

Note

•

HDMI is the world's first complete digital consumer AV interface complying with a non-compression standard.

•

If the external equipment has only a DVI output, connect to the HDMI1 terminal via a DVI to HDMI adapter cable (∗2).

•

When the DVI to HDMI adapter cable is used, connect the audio cable to the audio input terminal.

•

Audio settings can be made on the "HDMI1 input" menu screen. (p. 23)

•

Applicable audio signal sampling frequencies (2ch L.PCM): 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz

•

HDMI2 terminal is for digital audio signal only.

•

Use with a PC is not assumed.

•

If the connected equipment has an aspect adjustment function, set the aspect ratio to "16:9".

•

These HDMI connectors are "type A".

•

An equipment having no digital output terminal may be connected to the input terminal of either "Component", "S-VIDEO", or "Video" to receive analogue signals.

•

The HDMI input terminal can be used with only the following image signals: 480i, 480p, 576i, 576p, 720p and 1080i. Match the output setting of the digital equipment.

Technical Information

Aspect Ratio

Note

•

The ratio varies depending on the programme, etc. If the ratio is greater than the standard "16:9", black bands may appear at the top and bottom of the screen.

•

If the screen size looks unusual when a widescreen-recorded programme is played back on a VCR, adjust the tracking of the VCR. (See the VCR manual.)

•

Aspect mode can be memorized for SD (Standard definition) and HD (High definition) signals separately.

•

To select the ratio manually: (Only "16:9" or "4:3" in PC mode)

The optimum size and aspect can be chosen, and you can enjoy finer images. (p. 13)

■

Auto aspect: Auto aspect determines the best aspect ratio to use to fill your screen. It does this using a four step

process to determine if the picture being viewed is a widescreen picture.

4:314:916:9

Zoom3Zoom2Zoom1

Directly displays the image at "16:9" without distortion (anamorphic).

Displays a "16:9" letterbox or "4:3" image without distortion.

Displays the image at the standard "14:9" without enlargement.

Displays a "16:9" letterbox (anamorphic) image fullscreen without distortion.

Displays the image at the standard "4:3" without distortion.

Displays a "2.35:1" letterbox (anamorphic) image full-screen without distortion. At "16:9", displays the image at its maximum (with slight enlargement).

Auto aspect

The best ratio is chosen and the picture expanded to fill the screen.

If Auto aspect detects a widescreen signal it switches into the appropriate 16:9 or 14:9 widescreen mode. If Auto aspect

does not detect a widescreen signal then this advanced TV set enhances the picture for optimum viewing pleasure. The text shown on the screen indicates how Auto aspect determined which ratio to use: "WIDE" appears in the top left of the screen if a widescreen identification signal (WSS) is found or a signal found

through a SCART terminal. Auto aspect switches to the appropriate 16:9 or 14:9 widescreen ratio. This function

will also work in any aspect mode. "Auto aspect" appears in the top left of the screen if black stripes above and

below the picture are detected. Auto aspect chooses the best ratio and expands the picture to fill the screen. This

process can take several minutes, depending on the darkness of the picture.

Updating the DVB software

Note

•

During software download and update, DO NOT switch off the TV.

From time to time, a new version of software for DVB mode may become available for download to enhance performance or operations of the TV. A notification banner will appear when you tune to one of the BBC channels, or you can search for a new version software by using the "System Update Search Now" function (p. 27).

To start downloading press "OK", this may take up to 20 minutes to

complete.

To ignore the new software press "EXIT", but this banner will keep

appearing during the period of new software availability, usually 2 to 3 days.

To download any new software automatically, ensure that the "Auto Update Search in Standby" function in the

System Update menu is set to "On" (p. 27).

The TV will then download new software automatically at night if it is left in standby without any timer programme

in progress.
