Dynamic Contrast
The function dynamically and optimally adjusts
the contrast for the respective picture content by
analysing images and then altering this depend-
ing in a change in contrast. This increase the
contract, however may also reduce the visible
brightness levels in the picture.
Film mode
Detects and processes feature films automati-
cally for all channel sources. This means you will
always receive an optimal picture.
This functions in the modi 480i, 576i and 1080i
in TV playback and for other channel sources.
If the »Film mode« is switched on for pro-
grammes without a feature film signal, minor
problems such as picture freeze, defective sub-
titles or fine lines in the picture could occur.
Firmware version
Firmware is the term used for software that is em-
bedded in a programmed chip (microcontroller).
It is mostly stored in a flash memory, an EPROM
or an EEPROM. The firmware contains functions
for controlling the device.
Gamma
This setting establishes which brightness value
should be displayed for which digital transmis-
sion value. Most recordings are transmitted with
a gamma value of 2.2 (all Windows PCs and
newer PCs with a MAC operating system work
with this, older MAC systems and transmissions
without colour profile mostly operate with a
gamma value of 1.8).
