Vertical Transient Enhance
Sharp horizontal edge detail in the HD source, such as captions and graphics, is identified.
The gradient of these transients is increased to occupy the full UHD bandwidth. Some
degradation of fine textures may be evident when using higher settings.

UHD Noise Reducer
Multi-band noise reduction reduces noise visibility in up-converted images, without
introducing visual artefacts.
This process will not reduce noise that is already visible in the HD source.

Confirm
to set all enhancers back to default preset values.
•
Cancel
to leave enhancers at the current values.
Vertical Filter
•
Narrow 3
: Reduces vertical bandwidth of the down-conversion process. May be
useful when the UHD source contains high levels of mid-frequency content.
•
Narrow 2
: As above, but with less bandwidth reduction.
•
Narrow 1
: As above, but with minimal bandwidth reduction.
•
Normal
(default): Optimized bandwidth setting. Passes all vertical frequencies
compatible with the HD output.
•
Wide 1
: Allows some alias frequencies to pass, which may give an apparent increase
in picture sharpness.
•
Wide 2
: Allows a wider band of alias frequencies to pass.
Horizontal Filter
•
Narrow 2
: Reduces horizontal bandwidth of the down-conversion process. May be
useful when the UHD source contains high levels of mid-frequency content.
•
Narrow 1
: As above, but with less bandwidth reduction.
•
Normal
(default): Optimized bandwidth setting. Passes all horizontal frequencies
compatible with the HD output.
Note:
These settings apply only when converting from UHD to SD/HD.
