Product highlights

LCD WXGA display, 1280 x 768p

This WXGA display with state-of-the-art LCD screen technology gives you HD resolution of 1280 x 768p pixels. It produces brilliant flicker-free progressive scan pictures with optimum brightness and superb colours.

This vibrant and sharp image will provide you with an enhanced viewing experience.

Pixel Plus

Pixel Plus is a digital picture processing technology that increases the number of lines and the number of pixels.

The result is razor sharp pictures with incredible detail and depth, every time from any source.

Progressive Scan

Progressive Scan doubles the vertical resolution of the image resulting in a noticeably sharper picture. Instead of sending a field comprising the odd lines to the screen first, followed by the field with the even lines, both fields are written at one time. A full image is created instantaneously, using the maximum resolution. At such a speed, your eye perceives a sharper picture with no line structure.

Active Control + Light Sensor

Active Control is a unique and intelligent way of optimizing picture quality by measuring and analysing 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.

FM Radio

An FM radio capable of storing 40 preset stations in built in. On-screen station naming makes navigation simple, and a handy Clock Screensaver is also included for use while listening.

PC input

With PC input you can connect your TV to a computer and use the TV as a PC monitor.

Picture in Graphics

Picture-in-Graphics is a small window in the main picture, allowing to watch data/graphics in your main TV screen.

It provides the ability to simultaneously watch data/ graphics and the TV.

Twin page teletext

Twin page teletext allows you to simultaneously view two teletext pages side by side

10 page Smart Text

The teletext is a common system transmitted by most broadcasters. The 10 page smart text feature gives you fast access to information when changing pages.
