FEATURES
* Manufactured under license from Dolby
Laboratories. “Dolby” and the double-D symbol £
are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories.
Alternate Channel (A/CH) button allows you to switch back and
forth between the currently viewed channel and the previously
viewed channel.
Automatic PhosphorAging Compensation (APAC) Because both
analog sources (cable TV and DVD) and digital sources (HD and
progressive scan DVD) have different aspect ratios (4:3, 16:9, 21:9,
etc.) the picture on a digital television may have black bars on the
sides or top and bottom. Once black bars are detected in either the
4:3 or 16:9 viewing mode, APAC automatically shifts the television
picture, pixel-by-pixel, just enough to blur image retention.
Because APAC works in both the analog and digital modes, you
have excellent protection.
Audio/video jacks allow direct connections with VCRs and other
accessories for quality TV picture and sound playback. Component
video input jacks are provided for high-fidelity color and picture
resolution when using digital video source material, such as a DVD.
Audio Volume Leveler (AVL) control keeps the TV’s sound at an
even level. Peaks and valleys that occur during program changes or
commercial breaks are reduced, making for a more consistent, comfortable sound.
AutoChron automatically sets the right time of day and maintains
it with digital precision through brownouts, power failures, and even
Daylight Savings Time adjustments.
Incredible Surround enhances stereo programs by making the
sound broader and fuller.
Onscreen menu shows the TV controls and allows you adjust or set
those controls (can be viewed in American English, French, or
Spanish).
Standard broadcast (VHF/UHF) or cable TV (CATV) channel
capability, as well as advanced capability for high-definition video.
Three-line comb filter provides improved chroma/luminance
separation to the picture. Offering vertical-edge enhancement and
virtually no “dot crawl,” this filter easily supports the demands of
DVD players and other advanced high-resolution video sources.
AutoLock protects young children from objectionable programming
with V-chip technology.
Auto Picture allows you to push a button and adapt your TV’s
picture to various types of programs, such as sports, movies, and
multimedia (games).
Auto Sound allows you to select from three factory-set controls and
a personal control that you set according to your own preferences
through the onscreen Sound submenu. The three factory-set
controls—Voice, Music, and Theatre—enable you to tailor the TV
sound to enhance the particular programming you are watching.
Channel Edit allows you to add or remove channels from the list of
channels stored in the TV’s memory. Channel Edit makes it easy to
limit or expand the number of channels that are available to you
when you press the CH +/– buttons on your remote control.
Closed Captioning allows you to read TV program dialog or voice
conversations as onscreen text.
Auto Contrast helps you sharpen the picture quality by making the
contrast between the dark and bright picture areas more noticeable
as the image on screen changes.
High-definition component video inputs allow you to connect
High-definition signals to the TV (HD INPUT-AV 4 only). The
result is superb color purity, crisp color detail, and reduced color
noise. Your set provides separate HD inputs for YPbPr/RGB, as well
as horizontal and vertical sync.
Hi-fi stereo system, including a built-in audio amplifier and a twin
speaker system. The system enables you to hear stereo sound or
Second Audio Program (SAP) bilingual broadcasts when they are
available.
