Some options are only available in certain sources, i.e. HDMI, PC/VGA.
They are unavailable in the other sources where they have no affect.
Yes.
In the time settings menu, scroll down to Auto standby and select OFF.
1) Check you are in an area that can receive Freeview. Visit
www.freeview.co.uk
2) Check you are using an aerial that is able to receive a good digital
signal. In most cases, you will need an outdoor digital hi-gain/wideband
aerial. In areas that have excellent Freeview coverage, you may be
able to use a loft type aerial but it is highly likely that you will also need
to connect a booster between the back of the TV and the TV aerial wall
socket. Unfortunately, to receive a good enough digital signal, it is not
possible to use a portable/indoor type aerial. This may change once the
analogue signal is switched off in 2012 and the Digital signal strength is
increased.
Complete a fi rst time installation, please refer to the set-up menu section
of the manual of how to do this.
In addition to connecting via SCART, you should connect the aerial cable
from the wall socket to your VCR/DVD Recorder and another aerial cable
from the VCR/DVD Recorder to the TV.
1) Ensure the TVs source is on HDMI
2) Check your settings on your PS3 are as per the PS3 instruction
manual.
Component cables only provide HD Pictures. For the sound you will need
to connect the Red & White audio cables on the Xbox to the Red & White
phono inputs on the rear of the TV. Please refer to the 'Connections'
pages.
Ensure the USB Memory Key is formatted to type FAT32.
