●
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, setting the
Picture
mode
to
Vivid
sets
Brightness
,
Contrast
,
Sharpness
, and other
values to produce a very vibrant picture. Setting
Picture mode
to
Movie
changes the 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, you can set
HDMI 1
input’s
Movie
picture mode to use different settings 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
selected picture mode to its original values.
●
Local contrast
– Only on select models: Sets the amount of
dimming multiple “local” areas of the screen’s backlight
intensity. This setting can make dark areas darker without
affecting the brightness of light areas. This option is disabled
when
Game mode
is enabled.
●
Dynamic contrast
– Only on select models: Automatically adjusts
the backlight level to achieve the optimum contrast and prevent
excessive differences between light and dark areas of the
screen. This option is disabled when
Local dimming/Local
contrast
is enabled.
●
Backlight
- Adjusts the overall light intensity of the screen. On
some models, this option is disabled when Dynamic contrast is
enabled.
●
Brightness
– Adjusts the dark level of the black 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.
●
Tint
– Adjusts the color balance from green to red to obtain
accurate colors in the picture.
●
Color temperature
– Adjusts the overall colors in the picture from
Normal
to slightly more bluish (
Cool
) to slightly more reddish
(
Warm
).
●
Action smoothing
– Only on select models: Adjusts the amount
of action smoothing applied to the video signal. A higher setting
results in more smoothing, but can cause undesirable picture
artifacts in certain types of content. Each
Picture mode
has a
different
Action smoothing
default setting.
●
Natural Cinema
– Only on select models: When enabled, this
feature reduces “judder” that is often present when 24 frame-
per-second movies are upscaled to 60Hz TV standards. Natural
Cinema mode is On by default in Movie and HDR Dark picture
modes, and Off by default in other picture modes. When Natural
Cinema mode is On, Action smoothing is turned off and
disabled.
●
Action clarity
– Only on select 120Hz models: Reduces blur,
especially for fast-moving images such as sports.
●
LED action clarity
– Only on select models: Reduces motion blur
caused by LED backlight latency. Enabling this feature inserts
black frames between picture frames in a way that improves the
clarity of fast movement. It provides an improved viewing
experience for video games and sporting events. When LED
action clarity is enabled, the Brightness and Dynamic contrast
settings are disabled. You can choose settings of Low, Medium,
High, or Off to achieve the desired picture quality. Enabling
Game mode sets LED action clarity to Medium.
