Question:

How to access and modify Game Mode, BD Wise, Menu Transparency, and Melody settings on the TV?

 

Answer:

Subject:  General Menu - Options

 

Game Mode:

The Game Mode feature in the TV is a setting which helps increase the response time of the TV by eliminating some of the internal processes in the TV.

When game mode is active the TV is bypassing the DNIe chip so some settings will be unavailable for adjustment.

To turn on Game Mode follow these steps.

  1. With the TV turned on press the MENU button. [The Main Menu will appear]
  1. Use the up or down arrow button and select the 'Setup' portion of the Main Menu, and then press ENTER. [The selection bar will move to the right side of the menu]
  1. Use the up or down arrow button and select the 'General', and then press ENTER. [A pop-up menu will appear]
  1. Use the up or down arrow button and select the 'Game Mode', and then press ENTER. [A pop-up menu will appear]
  1. Use the up or down arrow button and select the 'On' or 'Off" depending on what you would like to have the feature set to, and then press ENTER. [The pop-up menu will disappear]
  2. Press EXIT to leave the Main Menu.

 

BD Wise:

The BD Wise is a feature that is used when connecting to an external device with HDMI that also has the BD Wise feature.

Before the external device sends a video signal the BD Wise feature will have the two devices "talk" to each other and they will determine the following:

  • The highest resolution that the content can be played at
  • Which video scaler the two device will use, either the one in the TV or the one in the external device.

Then one of the scaler will be bypassed and the video will play.

Bypassing one of the scaler will enhance the video playback.

Note: Sometimes when this features is attempting to communicate depending on the length of the cable and other factors this "Talk" time may be too long and time out.

If this happens the TV may display "Mode not Supported" or no picture at all.

If this happens set this feature to off, or replace your HDMI cable.

Default setting for this feature is 'On'. To change this setting follow these steps.

  1. With the TV powered on press the MENU button. [The Main Menu will appear]
  1. Use the up or down arrow button to select the 'Setup' section of the main menu, and then press ENTER. [The Selection bar will move to the right side of the menu]
  1. Use the up or down arrow button to select 'General', and then press ENTER. [A pop-up menu will appear]
  1. Use the up or down arrow button to select 'BD Wise', and then press ENTER. [A pop-up menu will appear]
  1. Select 'On' or 'Off' depending on who you want the BD Wise feature on or off, and then press ENTER. [The pop-up menu will disappear]
  2. Press EXIT to leave the menu.

 

Menu Transparancy:

Menu Transparancy will change how much you are able to see through the menu while it is open.

There are two settings for this Bright and Dark. Bright will allow you to see through the menu Dark will not.

 

 

Melody:

The melody is the music that plays when the TV is turning on and off.

Adjusting this option will allow you to raise and lower the volume of the melody, or turn it off.
