Highlights

LCD WXGA display, 1366 x 768p This WXGA display with state-of-the-art LCD screen technology gives you widescreen HD resolution of 1366 x 768p pixels. It produces brilliant flicker-free progressive scan pictures with optimum brightness and superb colors. This vibrant and sharp image will provide you with an enhanced viewing experience. Integrated Digital DVB-T tuner The integrated Digital DVB-T tuner lets you receive digital terrestrial TV without an additional set top box. Enjoy quality TV clutter free. HD Ready Enjoy the exceptional picture quality of High Definition pictures and be fully prepared for HD sources like HDTV settop box or Blu-ray disc. HD Ready is a protected label that offers picture quality beyond that of progressive scan. It conforms to strict standards laid out by EICTA to offer a HD screen that displays the benefits of resolution and picture quality of a High Definition signal. It has a universal connection for both analog YPbPr and uncompressed Digital connection of DVI or HDMI, supporting HDCP. It can display 720p, and 1080i signals at 50 and 60Hz. Digital Natural Motion Philips invented Digital Natural Motion to eliminate juddering effects that are visible with moving picture content. Digital Natural Motion estimates motion in the picture and corrects juddering movements in both broadcast and recorded movie material (such as DVD). The resulting smooth motion reproduction and excellent sharpness take the viewing experience to a higher level. Active Control + Light Sensor Active Control is a unique and intelligent way of optimizing picture quality by measuring and analyzing the incoming signal to automatically adjust picture quality settings. Active Control with Light Sensor uses a sensor to adjust the picture brightness depending on the room light conditions. Virtual Dolby Surround Virtual Dolby Surround is a processing technology for enhancing surround sound effects. It will create the sensation of Dolby Pro Logic without the necessity of additional rear speakers. You become totally immersed in your television experience. Bypacked tabletop stand A table-top stand with matching design is packed with the set. HDMI input HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB connection from the source to the screen. By eliminating conversion to an analog signal, it delivers an unblemished image. The nondegraded signal reduces flicker and leads to a clearer picture. HDMI intelligently communicates the highest output resolution with the source device. The HDMI input is fully backward compatible with DVI sources but includes digital audio. HDMI uses HDCP copy protection.

USB Memory Device Issues

- Devices connected to the USB port of your TV must be Mass Storage Class compliant. If your device (digital camera. MP3 player, portable harddisk, ) is not Mass Storage Class compliant it will not be detected by the content browser of the TV. - The following subsets of the Mass Storage Class specification are supported: The implementation of the TV is based on the Universal Serial Bus Mass Storage Class Specification Overview (v1.2, June 23, 2003) including all documents referenced by the document. The document can be found on the USB standardisation website (www.usb.org). Full support of the USB Mass Storage Class Bulk-Only Transport (bInterfaceProtocol = 50h). Full support of SubClass Code = 05h; SFF-8070i spec. Full support of SubClass Code = 06h; SCSI transparent command set. - For large USB memory devices, when you are in the Content Browser, it may take a long time before you can access your files. - When using a USB portable harddisk: Due to the high power consumption of the harddisk, it is advised to use the external power supply of the portable harddisk to guarantee proper working under all conditions.

Digital Content Issues

Only FAT (DOS) formatted (initialized) portable memory is supported. Errors in this formatting can result in unreadable content. If such problems appear try to re-format the card. Be aware that formatting the card will also delete all the content on it (pictures, music, ). The maximum size of any multimedia file should never exceed 4Gbyte. Do not use a dot. in folder naming. If video streams are supporting multiple audio tracks the first audio track will automatically be selected, the other audio tracks cant be selected.
