Video HD Dynamic Contrast This feature increases Contrast and Color Saturation to create deep, rich images. The intelligent circuitry analyzes both the dark and bright areas of the picture, and separately optimizes the dynamic range in each area of the picture (Last year only dark areas were optimized). Picture enhancements include Luminance transient improvement, Green Enhancement, and Blue Stretch. This circuit is only active in Sports Mode, and is now available with all video signals, including 1080i. Cinema Mode (3:2 Pulldown) This circuitry identifies original film based content from DVDs. Then, instead of simply passing the signal through for processing, it reassembles the frame sequence to more accurately reproduce the original 24 frame film-based material. This eliminates the possibility of errors or artifacts that can be caused by simply doubling the signal. Benefit: Sharp, accurate full-frame progressive images from any source. DFine Hi-Speed VSM VSM adjusts the CRT scanning speed to create sharp, well defined edges. DFine increases the scanning speed by 80% for even greater detail. Audio Stable Sound This feature maintains television volume within a preset range regardless of the source signal. Benefit: Eliminates the annoyance of normal program volume being followed immediately by extremely loud commercial messages or drastic volume fluctuations while changing channels. Convenience Direct Video Input Selection Direct Video Input Selection lets you go straight to the video input of your choice by pressing the input number on your remote control—so you don’t have to scroll through all of them. Benefit: Inputs can now be directly selected from the remote's numbered keypad without scrolling through all the inputs.
