same cable. Use these analog stereo audio inputs when
using the HDMI input with a device that outputs [}"71instead
of HDMI, such as DVl output from a personal computer.
6. AUDIO OUTPUT, RECORD OUTPUT
AUDIO OUTPUT sends analog audio of the program
currently shown on the screen to an A/V surround sound
receiver or stereo system. Digital audio from digital
channels, FireWire@ (DTV LinkiEEE 1894) devices and
HDMI devices is converted to analog audio by the TV. If
you do not have a digital A/V receiver, this should be the
only audio connection between the TV and your analog
AiV receiver or stereo system.
RECORD OUTPUT sends analog audio and video to
a VCR for recording purposes. These signals may not
be the same as those of the program that is currently

being shown on screen. Signals from digital channels
and FireWire (IEEE 1394) devices are converted to analog
signals. There is no video signal when copy restrictions
are in effect. Audio alone is output when a Component
input or the HDMI input is selected for recording.
7. HDMI TM 1 and 2
The HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports
uncompressed standard and high-definition digital video
formats and PCM digital audio format.
Use these inputs to connect to EIA/CEA-861 compliant
devices such as a high-definition receiver or DVD player.
These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i video
formats.
These inputs can also be used as a DVI connection with

Connecting E×temai Devices and NetCommand® Setup
NetCommand is able to control many current audio and video devices by sending remote control signals from the TV to
each device through IR emitters. Additionally, it can barn the remote control signals used by most audio video devices
not already in the TV's memory. NetCommand can automatically switch the TV and compatible or learned Audio/Video
(A/V) Receivers to the correct input used with each device. It is important that the inputs on the TV and AiV receiver
back panels match the NetCommand setup that is displayed on screen.
To simplify the installation of NetCommand, there is a step-by-step on-screen NetCommand Setup procedure in this
chapter, which details the type and brands of devices you are connecting to the TV. The NetCommand Setup also
assigns preset TV and AiV receiver inputs for each device. You should connect each device to the TV input (both audio
and video) and to the AiV receiver (audio) as shown in the figure below. If you connect devices to inputs other than the
ones shown as presets, you must change the NetCommand setup accordingly. See the Edit NetCommand information
starting on page 45.

CabJeOARD TechnoJogy
CableCARD is a nationwide system standard that allows
your local cable TV provider to supply you with an access
card customized to your account. This card allows your
TV to receive, decode and unscramble the premium
digital channels included in your cable TV subscription
without the use of a cable box. It also allows your
cable provider to automatically update and change your
subscription. When you move to a new cable provider's
area, you simply return the CableCARD to the original
cable provider and get a new card from your new cable
provider_
Please note that CableOARD is a new technology and
your local cable provider may not currently be offering
this service. As time passes, this system wiii become
broadly supported by most cable providers.
The CableCARD system is "unidirectional" which means
your cable provider can send updates to the access
card and TV, however, the TV cannot send back signals
such as requests for Video-On-Demand or Pay-per-View
programs by remote control
Digital cable channels authorized by the CableCARD
wiii be available on the Firewire® IEEE 1394 network
and can be shared by other products on the networL
Some digital channels or programs may not be copied
or recorded because of copy restriction limits set by the
content owners or copyright holders_
The digital television is capable of receiving analog
basic, digital basic, and digital premium cable
television programming by direct connection to a
cable system providing such programming. A security
card (CabieCARD) provided by your cable operator is
required to view encrypted digital programming. Certain
advanced and interactive digital cable services, such as
video-on-demand, a cable operator's enhanced program
guide, and data-enhanced television services, may
require the use of a set-top box. For more information,
call your local cable operator.
Please see page 17 for instructions on how to insert the
CabieCARD.

An IR emitter cable is included with the TV.
The emitters connected to these jacks are used by the
NetCommand system and by TV Guide On ScreenCb to
control other devices such as VCRs, DVD players, Cable
boxes and Satellite receivers.
1_ Connect the plug end of the supplied [R Emitter
CaMe to either one of the [R Output NetCommand
jacks on the TV back panel
2_
Run the came for each of the emitter ends under,
alongside, or over the top of each device to be
controlled to the area of the front where the remote
control sensor is [ocated.
3_ Place the emitter end in front of the remote control
sensor of the device to be contro[[ed. The emitter
bulb should face the remote control sensor. This
bulb emits infrared light in a cone shaped pattern.
The bulb needs to be placed far enough from the
remote control sensor to allow the cone pattern to
include the sensor.
The remote control sensor is usually behind the
plastic window of the front display panel It is
sometimes visible when you look through the display
plastic using a flashlight and is normally a round or
square cutout behind the plastic. If you cannot see
the sensor and the device's Owner's Guide does
not specify the location, you can find it by using the
device's remote control
a. Hold the remote about one-haft inch from the
front of the device. Starting from one end of the
display window plastic, press the POWER button.
b. If the device does not respond, move the remote
control one inch toward the center and try again.
c. Repeat this until the device responds.
d. Note this location and then start over from the
other end of the display window plastic, repeating
until the device responds again.
The remote control sensor wi[[ be somewhere
between these two positions. This is usually
enough accuracy for the placement of the [R
emitters.
With some devices, the emitter works better facing
downward from the top of the device. Some
experimentation may be needed.
The emitter end being used can be secured in place
using double stick tape.

Connecting Compatibme IEEE 1394 Devices
CompatibJe IEEE 1394 Devices
Compatible A/V devices include some, but not all, came
boxes, D-VHS VCRs, A/V discs, and future products. It
is aHsopossibHe to connect devices to the TV that have
[EEE 1394 connectors but are not compatibHe with the
TV or with the NetCommand® controH system. Areas of
compatibiHity to consider are:
1. Digital Video Signals
The TV is aMe to decode MPEG2 and DV video as
provided by some camcorders. If the TV is unaMe to
decode the digitaH signaH suppHied by your camcorder, try
S-video with anaHog audio connections instead. Other
types of digitaHvideo, such as PC video provided by
some computers, must be decoded by the source device
and sent to the TV as anaHog video, S-video, or HDMI
video.
2. Digital Audio Signals
When received with video signals, the TV is able to
decode Dolby Digital signals and MPEG audio signals.
Other types of digital audio as provided by some digital
recording devices, such as MP3 audio and DTS audio,
cannot be decoded by the TV when received over IEEE
1394
The TV may not be able to pass incompatible digital audio
signals on the coaxial digital audio output, however, these
signals may pass on the EEE 1394 cable to other devices.
3. Digital Control Signal
The TV can serve as the control center for IEEE 1394
audio/video devices, such as VCRs, A/V Discs, tuners,
cable boxes and amplifiers that are compatible with the
following IEEE 1394 control standards.
EIA=775 is designed for tuning devices such as cable
boxes, allowing the device to send simple graphics.
This standard does not, however, allow the TV to
control the cable box by IEEE 1394.
AV/C {Audio Video Control) is designed to provide
basic controls such as play, stop, channel selection,
and volume, as appropriate for the device.
The IEEE 1394 interface may not provide reliable control
signals for some DV camcorders, especially older models.
If your camcorder operates incorrectly or not at all, use
the camcorder's control buttons instead of the IEEE 1394
connection.
Some devices may be a combination of two or more
types of devices. For example, there may be a recording
device that is also a tuning device. Each portion of the
device is called a sub-unit. When you select a device on
the Device Selection menu that has sub-units, a pop-
up menu will appear so you can select which sub-unit
section you wish to use.
When Connecting IEEE 1394 Devices
Do not loop the last device in the chain back to the
TV. When the device chain is looped, the TV may not
be able to work with the other devices.
Digital
TV
Place devices that have only a mechanical (two-
position) power switch at the end of the chain or
leave the power switch in the On position. When
turned Off, IEEE 1394 signals may not be able to
pass through the device to other devices.
Place devices with the slowest communication
speed at the end of the chain. Sometimes the
communication speed will be marked near the IEEE
1394 connector with an "S" number. The higher the
number, the faster the communication speed. This
TV has a communication speed of $400. Devices
with slow communication speed can interfere with
IEEE 1394 signals from faster devices. When using
NetCommand to set up a digital recording between
a faster device and a slower device, make the slower
device the source and make the faster device the
recorder_
Do not use an IEEE 1394 cable over 15 feet in length
between each device.
This TV is an IEEE 1394a device. It can be used
with a 1394b system when an EEE-1394a-to-1394b
convertor is used. 1394b systems are capable of
greater distances and multi-room applications.
IMPORTANT
Playback
, When viewing DV camcorders, it is normal
for temporary audio and video distortion to
occur under conditions such as:
i!i
Playback start and stop
® Playback pause
* Forward or reverse picture search
Some DV Camcorder models are not
patible with this TV's IEEE 1394 system,
Because of this, the "New 1394 Device"
screen will not appear when the camcorder
ia connected, For playback of incompatible
DV camcorders, try S-video with analog
audio connections instead,

4-PinoStyme vs. 6oPin-Styme Connectors
There are two different types of connectors used for IEEE
1394 terminals and cables: a 4-pin and a 6-pin style.
4 pin connector
6 pin connector
The 4-pin connector sends digital
audio signals, digital video signals,
and digital control signals back and
forth between devices. Your TV
has three 4-pin-type connection
jacks available. One is on the front
panel and two are on the back.
The 6-pin connector can send
the same digital audio, video,
and control signals as the 4-pin
connector, but the 6-pin connector
can also send low-voltage electrical
power. This TV does not have 6-pin
connectors.
The purpose of this low-voltage electrical power is to
provide the needed operating power to a device that is
not connected directly to the household AC power, such
as a camcorder. A device with a 6-pin connector can
send this electrical power to another device, or receive
electrical power from another device, or simply use a 6-
pin connector without using the two additional pins.
6 pin to 4 pin adaptor
A 6-pin connector cannot be
connected directly to a 4-pin jack,
and vice versa. To connect a 6-pin
device to a 4-pin device, you need
to obtain a 6-pin-to-4-pin adaptor
or adaptor cable. These cables
are available from electronic and
computer stores.
When connecting a 6-pin device (such as a camcorder)
to the TV, (if it is designed to receive electrical power
from another 6-pin device) you wiii need to connect
the camcorder directly to the household AC, or use the
camcordeFs battery for power. If this is not possible,
then the camcorder will need to be connected directly to
another 6-pin device in the network that can provide the
electrical power.

Helpful Hints for NetCommand Connections
e.
A_
Q.
A_
My VCR (or other device} does not have two sets of stereo audio outputs. How can I connect this device's
audio to both the TV and the A/V Receiver?
Connect the single set of stereo audio outputs to the TV onHy. Use Edit NetCommand® to change the setup of this
device. In the Connection screen of "Change" make sure both audio and video for the TV input are check marked
and the audio for the AVR input is not check marked. This will allow the NetCommand system to use the TV
outputs to transfer the device's audio to the AiV Receiver. See Edit NetCommand in the next chapter for details.
I have both the TV stereo audio output and TV digital audio output connected to the same input
designations on my A/V Receiver, How do I switch between analog audio and digital audio?
In most setups, analog audio is also output as digital audio, so no switching is required, and there is no need to
connect the analog output. In some circumstances, however, you may also need analog audio from the TV. For
example, MP3 audio is only output in analog format, so you must connect the TV's analog AUDIO OUTPUT to the
AiV Receiver if you want to hear MP3 audio through the AiV receiver. Refer to your AiV Receiver user's guide to
find out how analog/digital audio switching works.
If your AiV Receiver's remote control has an Analog/Digital Audio key, you can use the GUIDE key with the
following models to control switching:
Mitsubishi M-VR900 Integra DTR-9J
Denon AVR-2700 Kenwood VR-2080
To make the switch, press the Device key on the TV's remote control, and from the Device Selection menu,
press the Audio key. Then, with the AiV Receiver highlighted, press the GUIDE key to make the switch.
If you have some other AiV Receiver model, use the TV's learn function to learn the analog/digital audio
code for the GUIDE key. Follow the instructions above for using the GUIDE key.
If your AiV Receiver has an Analog/Digital selection key on the front panel only, and not on the remote,
then your only option is to use that key to perform switching.
Q. The front panel of my A/V Receiver is too tall or too convex for the IR emitter signal to reach the remote
control sensor of the A/V Receiver. What can I do?
A. There are several possible solutions.
1_ Mount the IR Emitter on the top, front edge of the AiV Receiver over the remote control sensor. Use tape to
secure it in place.
2_ Mount the IR Emitter on the underside of the shelf above the AiV Receiver (if the AiV Receiver is in a cabinet).
Use double sided tape to secure it in place.
3_ Some small stick-on emitters from other manufacturers may be compatible with this TV's IR Emitter jacks.
These may be used instead of the supplied IR Emitters.
Q. I occasionally need to see the menu from my A/V Receiver. How can I connect it to the TV for this purpose?
A. You can connect the video output of the A/V Receiver to an unused input on the TV. Then use Edit NetCommand
to "Add" this as an "Other" device, not an AiV Receiver. On the "Connection" screen, indicate which TV input was
used and check mark the video box. Make sure the TV input audio box and both the audio and video boxes for
the AVR input are not check marked. You should also name this device so you can easily identify it on the Device
Selection Menu. You can also use Input 3 on the front panel.
Q.
A_
I have a high definition receiver I would like to connect and it also has an S=video output I would like to be
able use as well. is there any way to connect this receiver both ways?
Yes, this item will appear twice in the Device Selection Menu. Just add this unit once using the Component-1 and
once using one of the S-video inputs. Make sure you indicate that this is the same manufacturer for both. We
suggest that you connect stereo audio outputs with the S-video to the TV so that you do not need to use two inputs
on the AiV Receiver. If this is a NetCommand compatible HDTV receiver and HD or SD outputs can be switched by
remote control, see Edit NetCommand in the next chapter for NetCommand control of this feature.

NetCommand® Introduction
NetCommand makes your TV the heart of your Home Theater
NetCommand@ is an intelligent control system that makes your Mitsubishi TV the heart of your home theater. With
NetCommand, the TV sends signals to the other devices in the system via the IR emitters, telling the devices to play,
record, change inputs, adjust volume, change channels and many more functions. All of this is accomplished with one
remote control and without changing control layers.
IR Learning and IEEE 1394 Support
The (R "Learning" feature of NetCommand allows the TV to barn the
remote control signals for new devices that the TV is not preprogrammed
to operate. NetCommand@ also includes the capability of controlling
IEEE 1394 devices by sending control signals on a FireWire@ cable.
Using HetOommand is completely optional
When you first turn on the TV, the NetCommand Setup Wizard launches. If you decide to use NetCommand, follow
the on-screen instructions. If you choose not to use it right away, simply quit the Setup Wizard and NetCommand will
remain inactive. Later, if you decide to use NetCommand, you can easily access the Setup Wizard.
HetOommand and Levels of Control
When you set up NetCommand, you decide how much control you want the TV to have over your home theater system.
You have the choice of performing a basic, limited, or complete NetCommand setup.
o Basic Setup
In a basic setup, NetCommand will:
0 automatically switch to the correct TV input when you want to view programming from a different device. All
you do is select the device from the on-screen device selection menu. This saves you from having to search for
the correct input every time you want to change devices. Unused inputs are automatically deactivated so that
you don't see them in the menu.
0 show an on-screen icon for each device connected to the TV so you always know what devices are available.
Note that with a basic setup, you still need to use the remote control specific to each device.
Limited Setup
In a limited setup, you get the benefits of the basic setup plus NetCommand control over the specific devices you
have chosen. Use this type of setup if you:
0 only want NetCommand to control a few devices, such as the TV, a playback device (like a DVD player), and a
cable box. With this setup, you can use the TV's remote to control these devices.
0 want to use TV Guide On Screen@ to control your cable box and VCR and/or AiV disc. After performing this
setup, you can use the TV's remote to control these devices.
Full Setup
Perform a full setup if you want NetCommand to:
0 control a surround sound AiV receiver.
0 automatically change input selections for the AiV receiver.
0 control all devices with the TV's remote, including the AiV receiver.
HetOommand Helps You Manage Your Home Theater
With the NetCommand Review screen you can:
view a summary of all devices connected to the TV and the input used for each device.
deactivate or turn off unused input connections; reactivate or turn them on.
If you need to change your setup, the NetCommand sub-menu lets you easily
add new devices.
deleted devices you have disconnected.
change device and input selections.

Using the Remote Control with NetCommand®
Bellow is a Histof severaH manufacturers' devices tested and shown to be compatibHe with NetCommand. These devices
can be controlled without changing the setting of the remote controH from TV to another product. NetCommand may
be aMe to operate additionaH modeHs, since many manufacturers use the same controH signaHs to operate some or aH
of the modeHs they offer. This chart HistsonHythe modeHs that have been tested with NetCommand. The NetCommand
Learning feature is abHeto Hearnthe remote controH signaHs of most audio/video devices. For devices not Histed in the

feature by selecting "Other" at the [Device] screen. See the Edit NetCommand section of this Guide.
NOTE: There are many different types of remotes and not all of them may be compatible with the learning feature.
Bright light near the TV screen can also adversely affect the learning feature. If it is not possible to learn a device, you
will need to use the original remote control of the device, or program the TV remote to operate these devices in the
traditional manner.

IEEE 1394 Devices and NetCommand® Control
See pages 33 and 34 for information regarding compatible IEEE 1394 devices and connection styles. The TV is not able
to control IEEE 1394 devices that use other types of control protocols. Incompatible digital audio, video and/or control
information will still be able to pass from one device through the TV to another device on the network. These incompatible
devices may not appear on the Device Selection menu or in the Review screen of the Edit NetCommand menu.
NetOommand ControJ of DigitaJ Devices Using the "Learn" Feature.
Some IEEE 1394 devices, such as came boxes or satellite receivers, will not have compatibHe digitaH controH signaHs
or require the use of the device's own remote control Some of these IEEE 1394 devices will not dispHay on-screen
information through the BEEE1394 connection and will require using an analog connection for on-screen displays. In
many cases, to control these digital devices, the Learning feature of NetCommand can be used.
1. Place an IR Emitter for NetCommand in front of the device's remote control sensor (see IR Emitters, page 32).
2. On the Name for 1394 Device screen (Figure 29, page 54) use ADJUST and ENTER to check mark the Analog
Connection box.
3. Select the device type on the IEEE 1394 Device Type screen (Figure 30, page 55) of SAT or similar tuning device
4. If desired, using the ADJUST buttons enter a custom Name on the Name screen (Figure 20, page 50).
5. At the Device screen, Select "Other" as a manufacturer and then highlight "Learn" and press Next (Figure 31, page
55).
6. Follow the device learning instructions found on the screen(s) or in the Edit NetCommand section of Chapter 3.
7. The Connection screen (Figure 32, page 55) follows the learning screens. If analog connections are used, select
the correct inputs. If only digital connections are used, do not check the video or audio boxes.
8. Proceed with the Finish screen.
This will allow NetCommand to use the learned remote control signal to control these IEEE 1394 devices.
Note: When using the NetCommand learning feature for IEEE 1394 devices that do not have analog connections,
the GUIDE function will require pressing GUIDE twice. The first press of GUIDE will display the TV's digital channel
guide. The second press will display the program guide for the device if an IEEE 1394 Guide is available.

Adding IEEE 1394 Devices Automatically
Adding IEEE 1394 Devices
Addition of IEEE 1394 devices is a speciaH case of
NetCommand setup because the devices are detected
automatically. You review, edit, and deHetethese devices
through NetCommand just as you wouHd any other
devices.
When you connect an IEEE 1394 device to the TV network
and power it on, the new device automatically announces
its presence. This process is called device discovery and
can take up to one minute.
Some non-audio/video or incompatible IEEE 1394
devices, such as personaH computers (PCs), may not
announce their presence to the TV. The TV is not abHe
to show these devices in the Device SeHection menu.
They can, however, coexist and are still available to other
devices on the IEEE 1394 network that are compatible
with these non-audio/video devices.
Try using the CableiSATiDTV position of the TV remote
control to see if it can control operation of IEEE 1394
cable boxes and satellite receivers. If not, use the remote
control that came with the device.
New 1394 Device Screen

When your TV discovers a new IEEE 1394 device, the
New 1394 Device screen appears. Select "Add" or "Do
Not Add" depending on whether or not you want the
device added to the Device Selection menu. If the IEEE
1394 device does not provide audio and video, you may
not want to add that device to the TV's Device Selection
menu. Devices that were discovered but not added to
the Device Selection menu will still be listed in the Review
screen of the Edit NetCommand® menu.

The DV option applies only to digital camcorders at
this time and is typically detected automatically by the
TV. If your camcorder uses DV formatting but the box is
unchecked, add the check mark manually.
To use the analog capability of some IEEE 1394 devices,
such as some DVCRs and cable boxes, check the Analog
Connection box.
Some DVCRs, for example, can record and play
as VHS or S-VHS in addition to D-VHS. This
allows you to play analog rental tapes or analog

press REC on the remote controi when viewing a
recordabb source_
Your TV can stop recordings automatically and it can
send the signals from one external playback device
to another external recording device. It is also able to
convert digital channels and IEEE 1394 device signals to
analog signals. These converted signals can be recorded
on NetCommand-compatible analog VHS and S-VHS
VCRs connected to the RECORD OUTPUT/VIDEO and
AUDIO outputs on the back of the TV.
You can schedule the recording to take place at a later
time and program the recording duration for a minimum
of 30 minutes and a maximum of six hours (in 30-minute
increments). The default is one hour.
When a digital recording is being made, the TV can direct
the signals to the recording device using the IEEE 1394
cable. In the case of an analog recording, (as to a VCR)
the TV converts the digital signals to analog format and
sends the analog output to the VCR through the RECORD
OUTPUT jacks.
During the recording, you can view a different device or
power off the TV. See Appendix I for more information.
To prevent recording of unwanted material while
recording to a VCR or AiV disc, press PAUSE to
temporarily stop recording. Press PAUSE again to

Bright/Natural Modes
Bright and Natural modes are available for some settings
and allow you to optimize the image for a brighter
(daytime) or dimmer (nighttime) viewing environment. To
do this, your TV remembers two independent Contrast,
Brightness, and Color Temperature settings, one for each
of the two modes. Whenever you change settings for
Contrast, Brightness, or Color Temperature, first check
which of the two modes (Bright/Natural) is active.
Contrast (Bright/Natural)
Provides a slider to adjust the white-to-black level.
Low contrast shows a variety of shades in darker
images, while high contrast shows darker images
more uniformly black and makes colors appear more
vibrant. In most home lighting situations, a medium
contrast looks best. High contrast is good for
brightly lit environments.
Brightness (Bright/Natural)
Provides a slider to adjust the overall brightness of
the picture.
O Color
Provides a slider to adjust the color intensity.
O Tint
Provides a slider to adjust the ratio of red to green.
0 Sharpness
Provides a slider to adjust the detail and clarity.
0 Color Temp (Bright/Natural)
Allows you to adjust how white images are displayed.
Your choices are:
Low: White images will have a warm cast to them.
This adjustment is an average and can vary due
to ambient room lighting, video scene brightness,
and the TV's age. Natural/Color Temp at the
low setting displays video at the 6500K industry
standard for NTSC pictures.
High: White images will have a cool cast to them.
This setting may provide the most realistic picture
under bright lighting.
PerfectOolor TM
Adjusts any or all of six colors (Magenta, Red, Yellow,
Green, Cyan and Blue) to create color balance.
When you select PerfectColor and press ENTER,
you can adjust the colors automatically or manually
(individually).
Individual sliders for each color are displayed.
Highlighted text shows which slider you are
adjusting. Each TV input or device has a memory for
PerfectColor. While using the PerfectColor option,
press CANCEL if you want to reset the colors to the
0 Video Noise

TV Display Formats
This is a widescreen TV, aiso known as a 16:9 TV. This shape reflects the new types of images avaiiabb from HDTV
and many DVDs. There are still many oider styb narrow-screen images (caNed 4:3 aspect ratio) you win encounter.
WhiNethere win never be a perfect soiution for dispiaying a narrow image on a wide screen, MitsubisM offers severai
dispiay formats from which to choose.
Press FORMAT on the TV remote controi to cycb through
the avaiiabb dispiay formats. The Hast-used format for
each device is used when you return to that device.
Note: Not all formats are available for PJPI
POP. Side-by-Side is only available in Standard
and Expand formats, Three POP is available
in Standard format only. PO formats vary
depending on the PC signal.
DVD Definitions:
Anamorphic (or Enhanced for Wide-Screen TV's):
These DVDs are recorded in a special way to properly
show wide-screen images on 16:9 TV sets in the
Standard format mode. This is the recommended
choice.
Non-Anamorphic (or 4:3, 1:33:1, Letter box or Full
Screen}:
These DVDs are recorded for use with traditional shaped
TVs. They may be full screen (4:3 or 1:33:1) which crops
movies to fit the narrow TV, or Letter boxed, which adds
black top and bottom bars.
This information may or may not be listed on the DVD
case. Some DVDs support both types of recordings.
Signal Definitions
480i Signals: Traditional analog interlaced signals from
or through ANTq and 2, INPUT 1 and 2, COMPONENT 1-3,
and HDMI 1 and 2.
480p Signals: Progressive-scan analog DVD signals on
COMPONENT inputs and HDMI 1 and 2.
720p & 1080i Signals: High-definition analog signals
received through COMPONENT 1-3 and HDMI 1 and 2.
These signals are always 16:9 (widescreen).
SD 4:3: Standard-definition narrow-screen format signals
from digital channels and JEEE 1394 devices.
SD 16:9: Standard-definition widescreen format signals
from digital channels and EEE 1394 devices.
ND: High-definition wide-screen format signals from digital
channels and EEEN394 devices. These signals are always
16:9 (widescreen).
Format Definitions
Standard: This is the fulhscreen format. HDTV signals
use this format. This format is useful for displaying
Anamorphic DVDs that have 1.78:1 or 1.85:1 aspect
ratios. Anamorphic DVDs that have a 2.35:1 aspect ratio
are displayed with black bars at the top and bottom, but
show the entire image correctly. Narrow (4:3) images
are stretched evenly from side to side. Available for all
signals.
Expand: This enlarges the picture to fill the screen,
cropping off some of the image at the top and bottom.
This is useful for reducing the letter box top and bottom
bars of non-anamorphic DVD images. Available for
analog 480i, 480p and digital SD 4:3 signals only.
Zoom: This enlarges the picture, cropping off some
of the image at each side and top and bottom. This is
useful for removing or reducing the black top and bottom
bars on anamorphic DVDs with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio.
Available for analog 480i and 480p and SD 4:3 signals
only.
Stretch: This format stretches a narrow (4:3) image
across the screen; there is less stretch in the center
than at the sides, however. This aiiows the entire narrow
image to be displayed across the screen with less
distortion than is seen in the Standard format. Available
for analog 480i and 480p and SD 4:3 signals only.
Stretch Plus: Similar to stretch mode, but to minimize
distortions on the side, the picture is expanded to
crop off portions of the top and bottom. When no PIP
is displayed, you can press ADJUST up or down to
vertically adjust the position of the picture. Available for
analog 480i and 480p and SD 4:3 signals only.
Narrow: This format displays narrow (4:3) images in their
original shape, and adds stationary black side bars to fill
the screen. Available for 480i, 480p and digital SD 4:3
signals only.
Wide Expand: Enlarges the picture, cropping some of
the image on both sides. This Expand format is useful
to remove or reduce black side bars added to narrow
images that are converted to 16:9 signals for digital
broadcast. Available for analog 1080i, 720p, digital SD
16:9 and digital HD signals.
