Viewing Teletext

DVB (digital broadcasting) mode

DVB teletext services

DVB teletext services differ greatly from analogue teletext. When you switch to a DVB teletext service, the images you see can contain graphics and text, laid out and controlled in a manner decided by the broadcaster.

- You can check if the programme has teletext information.

If in Analogue mode

Select DVB

Switch to Teletext

How to use

In all cases, it is possible to navigate the pages using buttons on the remote control, but because the commands available must apply to all manufacturers of DVB equipment, some on screen commands may not correspond exactly to the remote control buttons.

For example:

Note

• As soon as you switch to a DVB channel with links to a teletext service, software is downloaded in the background to enable the teletext function. This means that when switching to a DVB channel, you should wait for approximately 5 seconds before pressing the TEXT button - this will allow the software to download. If you press the TEXT button before download is complete, there will be a short delay before the text screen is displayed.
• While navigating DVB teletext, you will find there is a short delay when moving between pages while the page downloads. There is often a prompt shown somewhere on the page (for example "Loading") to let you know that this is happening.

Analogue mode

What is FASTEXT mode (default)?

In FASTEXT mode, four differently coloured subjects are situated at the bottom of the screen. To access more information about one of these subjects, press the appropriately coloured button. This facility enables fast access to information on the subjects shown.

What is List mode?

In List mode, four differently coloured page numbers are situated at the bottom of the screen. Each of these numbers can be altered and stored in the TV's memory. ("Store frequently viewed pages", p. 20)

The Timer programming menu allows you to choose programmes that you wish to record. At the correct time, the DVB system will switch on and tune to the correct station (even if the TV is in Standby mode). TV Guide may also be used to set timer programmes. (p. 14)

• If the recording equipment is compatible with Q-Link or similar technologies (p. 40), and setup / connection are done completely (p. 40 and p. 44), you do not need to programme the equipment – the DVB system will control the recording progress.
• If the recording equipment is not compatible with Q-Link or similar technologies, set "Q-Link" in Setup Menu (p. 23) to the connected terminal (AV1 or AV2), and make timer programming of the recording equipment (Read the manuals of the equipment).

Caution

● The TV must either be On or in standby. - For preparations of a recording equipment, read the manual of equipment. - No other DVB channel can be selected during recording. However you can watch analogue channels. It may not be possible to record an encrypted programme (which is copy-protected).

HDMI Functions

HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) allows you to enjoy high-definition digital images and high-quality sound by connecting the TV and the equipment.

HDMI-compatible equipment (*1) with an HDMI or DVI output terminal, such as a set top box or a DVD player, can be connected to the HDMI terminal using an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable.

About connections, see "External Equipment" (p. 44).

Note

• HDMI is the world's first complete digital consumer AV interface complying with a non-compression standard.
• If the external equipment has only a DVI output, connect to the HDMI1 terminal via a DVI to HDMI adapter cable (*2).
• When the DVI to HDMI adapter cable is used, connect the audio cable to the audio input terminal (HDMI1: use COMPONENT-AUDIO terminals).

● Audio settings can be made on the "HDMI1 Input" menu screen. (p. 22)

● Applicable audio signal sampling frequencies (2ch L.PCM): 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz

● HDMI2 terminal is for digital audio signal only.

- Use with a PC is not assumed.

- If the connected equipment has an aspect adjustment function, set the aspect ratio to "16:9".

- These HDMI connectors are "type A".

- These HDMI connectors are compatible with HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) copyright protection.

- An equipment having no digital output terminal may be connected to the input terminal of either "Component", "S-VIDEO", or "Video" to receive analogue signals.

The HDMI input terminal can be used with only the following image signals: 480i, 480p, 576i, 576p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p. Match the output setting of the digital equipment.

In addition, the equipment with "HDAVI Control 2" function enables the following operation:

- Access and control the connected equipment by VIERA remote control (p. 43)

These features are limited to models incorporating Panasonic's "HDAVI Control" and "VIERA Link". VIERA Link "HDAVI Control", based on the control functions provided by HDMI which is an industry standard known as HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), is a unique function that we have developed and added. As such, its operation with other manufacturers' equipment that supports HDMI CEC cannot be guaranteed.

Refer to individual manuals for compatibility information. About applicable equipment, consult your local Panasonic dealer or refer to the URL: www.panasonic.co.uk

■HDMI cable

This function needs an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable. Non-HDMI-compliant cables cannot be utilized. It is recommended that you use Panasonic's HDMI cable. Recommended part number:

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.

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

Displays the image at the standard "14:9" without enlargement.

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

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

Displays a "16:9" letterbox (anamorphic) image full-screen 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).

This is a characteristic of liquid crystal panels and is not a problem. The liquid crystal panel is built with very high precision technology giving you fine picture details. Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of red, green, blue or black. Please note this does not affect the performance of your LCD.

The LCD panel moves slightly when it is pushed with a finger. Clattered sound might be heard.

There is some looseness around the panel to prevent damage to the panel. The panel might move slightly when it is pushed with a finger, and a clattered sound might be heard. This is not a malfunction.
