Viewing distance (TV32F.../TV40F...)

Your new FullHD-TV has been designed to display high-resolution HD-signals in the very best quality. Currently the following HD-sources are available:

  1. DVB-S2-HDTV satellite receiver
  2. HDTV cable receiver
  3. Blu-ray player.

Only above sources offer highest-quality HD-video at top-resolution, which your new FullHD-TV lets you enjoy now. To play such signals at full resolution, it is necessary to connect the sources by HDMI-cable (not supplied). The recommended closest viewing-distance for such HD-signals is: 1 meter. You may also watch from greater distance, however you might not catch all the HD-video's details.

Standard video

All other sources offer standard-resolution of max. 576 lines, e.g. analog & digital cable-TV, MPEG-2-DVB-T, DVB-S-satellite receiver, DVD-Player, VHS, etc.

For all 16:9-videos the analog cable-TV transmits only 432 lines. For comparison: HD-sources deliver 1080 lines. Having more than twice the amount of lines, the HD-video looks a lot more detailed compared to analog TV. Or vice versa: analog video supplies a very poor quality if viewed on FullHD-TVs. Thus the recommended closest viewing-distance for analog cable-TV is: 2,50 meters. You may watch from a greater distance though. If, however, you decide to watch such poor signal from a distance closer than recommended, you will notice the signal's inherent poor quality.

How to improve the analog cable-TV's picture-quality.

Actually analog cable has a 60-year history and is now quite old-fashioned. Cable supplier will not improve the analog-video-standard any more. However, you may upgrade to digital-cable-quality for relatively low cost. Please ask your cable-supplier for more detail concerning the low-cost trial-period, free digital receiver, etc.

When the TV stand has casters, remove caster cups from the stand and push it while supporting the unit.

  • Ensure that you support the unit when the stand is pushed, as this can cause the unit to fall and you could be injured.
  • The appliance could leave indentations in wooden tables with extremely soft wooden surfaces due to its heavy weight.
  • Furniture polish could corrode and dissolve rubber feet. Black imprints could be visible on the table. You should therefore only use TV benches, which have been constructed for this specific purpose.

Secure the casters when the unit is installed on a TV stand with casters.

  • The stand can move and you could be hurt if the casters are not secured.
    Remove casters when the stand is placed on a soft surface such as a mat and carpet.

The distance between eyes and the screen should be about 3 \~ 4 times as long as height of the screen.

- Viewing from too close a distance can cause strain for your eyes.

When installing the Monitor on a table, be careful not to place the edge of its stand.

- This may cause the Monitor to fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the Monitor.

Possible Adverse Effects on LCD Screen: If a fixed (non-moving) pattern remains on the LCD screen for long periods of time, the image can become permanently engrained in the LCD TV panel and cause subtle but permanent ghost images. This type of damage is NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. Never leave your TV on for long periods of time while it is displaying the following formats or images:

  • Fixed Images, such as stock tickers, video game patterns, TV station logos, and websites.
  • Special Formats that do not use the entire screen. For example, viewing letterbox style (16:9) media on a normal (4:3) display (Black bars at top and bottom of screen); or viewing normal style (4:3) media on a widescreen (16:9) display (Black bars on left and right sides of screen).

Attention!

Cleaning instructions for your LCD TV.

Safety note:

Before you start to clean, switch the set's power off completely and disconnect the plug from the mains power supply.

Be careful not to scratch the plastic coated front panel - it is highly vulnerable to accidental scratching (e.g. by fingernails or other sharp items). (While cleaning, do not wear jewelry) that could cause surface scratching (such as rings, wrist-watch, etc.). Use a lint-free cloth and pure water to clean with, but make sure the cloth is thoroughly wrung out so that it is just damp and not soaking wet - also make sure that the cloth is free from any dirt that could cause scratching to the surface.

Wipe the set clean using minimal pressure.

Do not use standard window cleaning fluid. Its alcohol / ammonia will dissolve the front window's coating. Never use solvent or thinner. Never use special cleaners which are designed for cleaning PC Monitors or CRT TVs. Finally carefully rub dry with a clean dry lint-free cloth.

Do not use paper towels or tissues to clean the set - paper can disintegrate when wet or may leave a trail of dust behind. Some paper can also be abrasive and scratch your screen.

Saving electricity

The backlight's brightness (power) can be set manually to match the surrounding illumination. At bright daylight the backlight's full power is required to perform a brilliant result. During lower illumination, e.g. at night, you set a lower backlight-brightness (see p. 19). Figures lower than 100 reduce the brightness, save energy and offer a dazzlefree fatigueless watching at night.

Remarks on DVB-T system

DVB-T is at present still being developed. You can get information regarding the current stage of development from your specialist retailer.

As a digital service DVB-T basically works differently to previous analogue TV reception.

Reception Possibilities:

In contrast to cable TV, DVB-T is received via room or roof antennas. A room antenna is sufficient for reception within the reception area of a DVB-T transmitter. A roof antenna may perhaps be necessary for reception in a fringe area. Existing roof antennas may have to be turned in a different direction.

Contact your specialist retailer to find out about the location of the reception areas or fringe areas. You cannot get DVB-T reception outside the fringe area. Ask a certified antenna specialist for advice on interference with reception. The tuner of this appliance cannot provide active room antennas with operating voltage. Active room antennas have to be equipped with a separate power supply.

Reception Quality:

DVB-T reception principally either works really well or not at all. There is not a smooth transition with a constant reduction in reception quality. Digital interference occurs at maximum reception range:

the image freezes, the picture becomes blocky, the sound breaks up or reception cuts out altogether at times. If you notice interference with DVB-T reception then this is usually not due to a fault on the TV appliance. Please contact an antenna specialist if you have interference with reception. Inspection of the quality of DVB-T reception is not included in the free warranty to be provided by the manufacturer of the TV appliance.

Image and Sound Quality:

An individual transmitter transmits up to 4 TV channels on one transmission frequency. This is possible through compression in accordance with the MPEG standard, which is similar to digital data storage on a DVD. The data rate of DVB-T is just a lot lower; at present the max. video bit rate is approx. 4Mbps and the max. audio bit rate is at 256kbps. Visible interference (e.g. blocky picture) can result at extremely low data rates despite there being excellent reception quality within vicinity of the transmitter. Blocky pictures are no fault of the receiver. They are the result of the low data rate transmitted. The digital DVB-T sound can be transmitted to the digital amplifier via the digital output of your TV set.

Image Format

Images are transmitted in 4:3 format, 4:3 letterbox format (with black bars above and below the picture) and anamorphic 16:9 format (without black bars). The max. transmitted resolution at present is 704x576.

Encryption

Encryption is basically possible, but no DVB-T channels are as yet encrypted. A CAM module and an access card are necessary to receive encrypted channels. You can get CAM modules from your specialist retailer and access cards from the respective broadcasting company. The CI slot in this appliance accepts CAM modules and therefore allows for the reception of encrypted channels. Please note: Pay TV providers are basically free to choose their encryption system. Although this TV set is manufactured according to DVB standards, it can be that a set-top box is nevertheless required to receive the desired pay TV channels. These are available from the pay TV provider.

Child Lock

Like DVDs, DVB-T offers can also provide age-restricted access. At the moment, no channels are equipped with this restriction. This appliance does, however, already offer the feature of setting up password protected age restrictions, which only work when the respective programmes are broadcast.

EPG (Electronic Program Guide)

EPG is part of the DVB-T-signal with 8-days-schedule. This TV can receive and display the EPG-information included into DVB-T. This TV's EPG-Decoder will not work with cable- and Satellite-TV.

Password Setup (Parental lock)

Picture size and resolution

Resolution and picture quality

Broadcast wide screen films in different resolutions. The following table shows the resolution options for wide screen film broadcast media.

Broadcast media
Resolution of the wide screen signalAnalogue cable TVDigital cable TVDVB-TSatellite (DVB-S)DVD HDTV Satellite (DVB-S2)Blu-ray-Disc
432i x 704 (Letterbox) YesYes Yes YesYes Yes YesNo
576i x 704 (anamorphic) NoYes Yes YesYes Yes YesNo
720 x 1280 (HD) No Yes*No No No YesYes Yes
1080i x 1920 (HD) No Yes*No No No YesYes Yes

* Digital Cable receiver with HDMI output required.

Best picture quality is achieved when the input signal has a resolution of 1920 x 1080i. If a signal with a lower resolution is input (e.g. analogue cable TV), there is a visibly poorer picture quality.

This is understandable as, if the same picture quality were available at a lower resolution, the broadcasting companies would not need to take the trouble to send the signal at the higher resolution.

Why are there different resolutions?

Analogue cable TV uses a standardised TV signal. Each analogue tube TV, however old it is, can process this signal. That is the advantage of standardisation. The disadvantage is that the resolution has not changed since the end of the Second World War. The resolution has been max. 576i x 768, or approx. 0.4 megapixels, for over 60 years. In comparison, modern cameras typically have a resolution of 12 megapixels, e.g. 4000 x 3000.

Why do cameras have high resolutions of 12 megapixels and more?

Photos are for printing. 0.4 megapixels are far too few for a good A4 picture. Even the most expensive printer cannot make a good A4 picture from 0.4 megapixels.

For the same reason HD-TV sets cannot display a good picture from the signal of an analogue cable TV. 16:9 programmes have black frames. The resolution is only 432 x 704. That corresponds to 0.3 megapixels – far too few for HD-TV sets!

Digital cable TVs show 16:9 programmes without black frames. Vertical resolution is increased from 432 lines to 576 lines. This alone already gives a visible picture improvement. A digital cable receiver is necessary for receiving digital cable TV. Please ask your cable provider.

A digital cable receiver with HDMI output allows HD-TV reception of the optimum HD signal at a resolution of 1920 x 1080i.

Picture quality and black bars

Wide screen films come in different formats. The format is the relationship between the width and height of the picture. For example, with a 16:9 film the width to height ratio is 16:9 or 1.78:1. Only 16:9 films can fill a HD-ready screen without black bars. Therefore, black bars are always visible when a format other than 16:9 is received. E.g. 4:3, A 4:3 displays vertical black bars to the right and left.

If a 4:3 picture is increased to 16:9 format then it either appears distorted (see illustration) or some parts of the picture are cropped off at the top and the bottom. This is completely normal and is not a fault in the wide screen TV.

Super Cinemascope films are wider than 16:9 films. They are in the format 2.4:1 or 22:9, for example. This is clearly wider than 16:9. Therefore, Super Cinemascope films display black bars at the top and bottom on any HD-ready TV set.

ORION TV32PL690D - Picture quality and black bars - 1
4:3 picture 1:1 on 16:9 screen

ORION TV32PL690D - Picture quality and black bars - 2
4:3 picture zoomed on 16:9 screen

Picture format and resolution

There is no connection between the picture format and the resolution received. For example, the Super Cinemascope format can be received in all resolutions, even in the HD resolution1080ix1920. For HDTV reception too an HD-ready set may display black bars at the top and bottom.

Picture format

Picture Size

The required picture format can be set by pressing the PICTURE SIZE button. Press PICTURE SIZE until the required format is displayed.

You move through the following formats when you press the button: Auto, 4:3, 16:9, 14:9, Cinema, Real (HDMI mode only).

Auto

The picture is automatically only then shown in a format-filling display when a WSS-TV signal is received.

Example:

If the analogue tuner receives a letterbox image with WSS signal then the resulting image looks like this:

ORION TV32PL690D - Example: - 1
illustration 1:
Letterbox image is increased

WSS:

Public broadcasters include 16:9 identification, the WSS signal (WideScreenSignalling), during transmission in order to ensure automatic conversion to 16:9.

Most private broadcasters do not transmit a WSS signal. Their 16:9 films are always broadcast in letterbox format. Automatic does not recognise anything without WSS signal and does not automatically alter the picture size. Use the PICTURE SIZE button to set the required picture size for private channels.

Other formats

Press PICTURE SIZE until the desired size is reached.

4:3

The picture is displayed in 4:3 format with black bars to the right and left.

ORION TV32PL690D - 4:3 - 1

16:9

The width of the picture will be zoomed evenly. 16:9 is particularly suitable for DVD players, DVB-T, DVB-C and satellite receivers, which can transmit and show 16:9 feature films without black bars. In the set-up menu of the set, adjust it to show that a 16:9 TV set is connected.

14:9

The picture is increased somewhat but not up to the full screen width. Black bars remain on the right and left and also at the top and bottom.

Cinema

Use Cinema to increase a small 4:3 letterbox signal. How do you recognise whether the broadcasting station / the set operating is using a 4:3 letterbox signal that is too low? Press the PICTURE SIZE button on the remote control until the 4:3 format appears. If the picture is surrounded by a black border as in the illustration, this is a 4:3 letterbox signal. Limited by the broadcasting station / the set operating, this signal is much too low for a 16:9 FullHD screen. Cinema increases this picture that is too small as far as possible. Natural visible poor focus emerges, rather as if a postcard were being increased to poster size. This unfocused appearance is conditioned by input signals that are too low and is in no way a production fault in this TV set.

ORION TV32PL690D - Cinema - 1
4:3 Letterbox picture increased to Cinema format.

Real (HDMI mode only)

All images are displayed on the TV screen of 16:9 ratio without overscanning.

ORION TV32PL690D - Real (HDMI mode only) - 1

Note:

  • In PC mode, the picture size feature is available only for 16:9- or 4:3- format.
  • External receivers can automatically adjust the picture size via a SCART cable. Please read the instructions for the external receiver.
  • If you select Real, the image might become a horizontal expansion according to the signal format. In this case, select an appropriate aspect with PICTURE SIZE.
