Scan Velocity Modulation Improves the sharpness of the picture by
changing the speed of the cathode-ray tube's electron beam when it
Auto... transitions between dark and light areas of the screen. Choose to have it on
(box checked) or off (box unchecked), depending on your preference.
Autoformat When enabled (box checked) the TV automatically selects the
best screen format for the incoming signal for analog channels and inputs.
The Autoformat feature is not available for digital channels.
Video noise reduction Reduce picture "static" or any type of interference.
This feature is especially useful for providing a clearer picture in weak
analog signal conditions. Press the right arrow button to choose between:
Off for no noise reduction; Minimum for a softer, smoother picture that
retains picture sharpness and detail; Medium for a slightly softer picture
than the Minimum setting; Maximum for an even softer, smoother picture
than the other settings (the picture detail is somewhat decreased).
Optimized still picture When enabled (box checked), enhances the picture
specifically for still frames (for example, if you're watching a slide show on
your HDTV, or if you've paused a frame of a DVD).
Auto Skin Tone When enabled (box checked), minimizes the flesh tone
variations of the TV picture.
Film mode (3:2 Pulldown) Automatically detects video sources that were
originally recorded on film (like most movies) and subsequently converted
to a different format (for TV broadcast, for example). Film mode processes
the converted signal so that it looks as close as possible to the original.
Another name for this process is reverse 3:2 pulldown.
Note: Autoformat and Video noise reduction are available for the CMP1
and CMP2 inputs only if the signal is 480i.
Note: Film mode is not available for digital channels.
Advanced (recommended) enables the feature only when the TV
detects that movie playback quality could be improved. Advanced is
the default setting.
The On setting should only be used in rare circumstances when
the TV is used solely with film-based sources (like DVDs on a non-
progressive-scan player).
The Off setting turns off film mode upconversion. Try using this
setting if you think the reverse 3:2 pulldown is causing distortions in
your picture.
