This function is not available in Analogue mode.● Timer Programming can store up to 15 events.● Timer Programming only works reliably if correct time information is received via the signal from the broadcaster ● or service provider. For recording using Timer Programming, the TV must be either On or in standby. For reminders to be displayed, ● the TV must be On. No other channel can be selected while the recording of Timer Programming is in progress.● It may not be possible to record an encrypted programme (which is copy-protected).● When recording programmes to the external recorder, be sure to make the proper settings on the recorder ● connected to the TV. If a compatible recorder with Q-Link, VIERA Link or similar technologies is connected to the TV (p. 86 and p. 87) and the “Link Settings” (p. 36) are completed, no setting of the recorder is required. Also read the manual of the recorder. If the recorder is not compatible with Q-Link, VIERA Link or similar technologies, set “Q-Link” in the Setup Menu

Auto mode■

Auto mode determines the best aspect ratio to fill the screen. It does this using a four step process (WSS, Control signal through SCART / HDMI terminal, Letterbox detection, or Justify to fill the screen) to determine. This process may take several minutes, depending on the darkness of the image. Letterbox detection: If black bands at the top and bottom of the screen are detected, Auto mode chooses the best ratio and expands the image to fill the screen. If no aspect signals are detected, Auto mode enhances the image for optimum viewing pleasure.

Note

The ratio varies depending on the programme, etc. If the ratio is out of the standard 16:9, black bands at the top ● and bottom of the screen may appear. If the screen size looks unusual when a widescreen-recorded programme is played back on a VCR, adjust the ● tracking of the VCR. Read the manual of the VCR.
