Advanced picture settings
The Advanced picture settings menu for each TV input provides settings for fine tuning the appearance of the picture. All
of the settings in this menu apply only to the currently-selected input.
To use the Advanced picture settings menu, first press

to display the Options menu. Then select Advanced picture
settings .
To adjust the settings on the
Advanced picture settings
menu, press the
UP
or
DOWN
arrow to highlight a setting, and
then press the
LEFT
or
RIGHT
arrow to change the setting. You’ll notice the changes you make right away in picture ap-
pearance.
Tip
:
When you highlight a setting, the header text explains the effect of its current value. When you begin to
adjust a setting, the other options are hidden so you can see more of the screen. Even though the other settings
are hidden, you can move the highlight up or down to adjust the other settings. As soon as you press the UP or
DOWN arrow, the other settings become visible again.
Advanced picture settings menu options
• Picture mode
– Provides picture presets for various viewing preferences. This setting duplicates the one on the
Options
menu. When you change the
Picture mode
, other picture settings adjust accordingly. For example, set-
ting the
Picture mode
to
Vivid
sets
Brightness
,
Contrast
,
Sharpness
, and other values to produce a very vibrant
picture. Setting
Picture mode
to
Movie
changes these same settings to produce a picture suitable for enjoying
movies in a darkened room. If you make changes to the individual picture settings—for example, Contrast , or
Sharpness —these settings are saved for the current input and the current picture mode. In this way, the HDMI
1 input’s Movie picture mode can be customized and different than the HDMI 2 input’s Movie picture mode and
Antenna TV’s Movie picture mode. Use Reset picture settings , described below, to return the input’s current
picture mode to its original values.
• Dynamic Contrast – Automatically adjusts the backlight level to achieve the optimum contrast and prevent
excessive differences between light and dark areas of the screen. The Backlight option is disabled when Dynamic
Contrast
is enabled.
• Backlight - Adjusts the overall light intensity of the screen.
• Brightness – Adjusts the black level of the dark areas of the picture.
• Contrast – Adjusts the white level of the light areas of the picture.
• Sharpness – Adjusts the sharpness of the edges of objects in the picture.
• Color – Adjusts the intensity of colors in the picture. A setting of 0 removes all color and displays a black and
white picture.
