Technical Information

Aspect Ratio

The optimum size and aspect can be chosen, and you can enjoy finer images. (p. 13)

■Auto: Auto aspect determines the best aspect ratio to use to fill your screen. It does this using a four step process to determine if the picture being viewed is a widescreen picture.

If Auto aspect detects a widescreen signal it switches into the appropriate 16:9 or 14:9 widescreen mode. If Auto aspect does not detect a widescreen signal then this advanced TV enhances the picture for optimum viewing pleasure. The text shown on the screen indicates how Auto aspect determined which ratio to use:

"WIDE" appears in the top left of the screen if a widescreen identification signal (WSS) is found or a signal found through a SCART terminal. Auto aspect switches to the appropriate 16:9 or 14:9 widescreen ratio. This function will also work in any aspect mode. "Auto" appears in the top left of the screen if black stripes above and below the picture are detected. Auto aspect chooses the best ratio and expands the picture to fill the screen. This process can take several minutes, depending on the darkness of the picture.

• The ratio varies depending on the programme, etc. If the ratio is greater than the standard "16:9", black bands may appear at the top and bottom of the screen.
• If the screen size looks unusual when a widescreen-recorded programme is played back on a VCR, adjust the tracking of the VCR. (See the VCR manual.)
• Aspect mode can be memorized for SD (Standard definition) and HD (High definition) signals separately.
• To select the ratio manually: (Only "16:9" or "4:3" in PC mode)

The best ratio is chosen and the picture expanded to fill the screen.

Displays the image at the standard "14.9" without enlargement.

Displays a "16:9" letterbox or "4:3" image without distortion.

Displays a "2.35:1" letterbox (anamorphic) image full-screen without distortion. At "16:9", displays the image at its maximum (with slight enlargement).

Directly displays the image at '16:9' without distortion (anamorphic).

Displays the image at the standard "4:3" without distortion.

Displays a "16:9" letterbox (anamorphic) image full-screen without distortion.

Updating the DVB software

From time to time, a new version of software for DVB mode may become available for download to enhance performance or operations of the TV.

A notification banner will appear when you tune to one of the BBC channels, or you can search for a new version software by using the "System Update Search Now" function (p. 27).

To start downloading press 'OK', this may take up to 20 minutes to complete.
To ignore the new software press "EXIT", but this banner will keep appearing during the period of new software availability, usually 2 to 3 days
To download any new software automatically, ensure that the "Auto Update Search in Standby" function in the System Update menu is set to "On" (p. 27).
The TV will then download new software automatically at night if it is left in standby without any timer programme in progress.

Note

During software download and update, DO NOT switch off the TV.

VIERA Link "HDAVI Control™"

HDMI connections to some Panasonic equipment allow you to interface them automatically. (p. 40)

• This function may not work normally depending on the equipment condition. - Image or sound may not be available for the first few seconds when the play
• Image or sound may not be available for the first few seconds when the playback starts.
• Image or sound may not be available for the first few seconds when input mode is switched.
  ●Volume function will be displayed when adjusting the volume of the equipment.
  ● Easy playback is also available by using the remote control for Amplifier or Player theatre. Read the manuals of the equipment.
• If you connect the same kind of equipment at once (for example: one DIGA to HDMI1 / another DIGA to HDMI2), VIERA Link is available for the terminal with the smaller number.
  • "HDAVI Control 2" is the newest standard (current as of February, 2007) for Panasonic's HDAVI Control compatible equipment. This standard is compatible with Panasonic's conventional HDAVI equipment.
