Edge LED Backlight: The
Sony Bravia KDL-46EX720 TV utilizes edge LED backlighting for dynamic contrast, smooth motion performance, and energy savings inside a slim designed cabinet.
This technology sharpens image contrast giving an amazingly crisp picture you
can see. The ultra-thin backlight system also allows for a slimmer, sleeker
design.
X-Reality Engine: Sony's X-Reality engine lets you enjoy a vivid,
lifelike picture experience by analyzing each scene so you see sharpened images,
amazing contrast, and fine detail. Blu-ray Disc movies, cable TV, satellite TV,
and even Web videos each place unique demands on the processing circuits of a
TV. The X-Reality Engine helps get the best results from different video
sources. The X-Reality Engine analyzes the scene and selectively applies a
variety of noise reduction and image processes prior to upscaling in order to
get the best results from different sources.
- Intelligent Image Enhancer: Experience exceptional color contrast
and picture accuracy in every frame with the television's Intelligent Image
Enhancer. The Intelligent Image Enhancer enhances the details and outlines
of the picture while suppressing artifacts. The X-Reality Engine uses the
Intelligent Image Enhancer to divide the signal
according to four characteristics (Texture, Outline, Contrast, and Color).
The circuit divides the picture into these four parts, analyzes the quality
of each scene and applies only the processing required for each part. The
result is a picture that's carefully optimized for natural image
reproduction.
- Intelligent MPEG Noise Reduction: Dramatically reduces two common
problems in compressed video signals - block noise and mosquito noise. The
Intelligent "MPEG Noise Reduction" automatically reduces picture noise, such
as mosquito noise and/or block noise, in compressed videos. It improves
picture quality in Digital broadcast and DVD/BD/HDD players.
- Adaptive Noise Reduction: The TV's Adaptive Noise Reduction
automatically reduces picture noise.
- Adaptive Dot Noise Reduction: Adaptive Dot Noise Reduction
automatically reduces dot noise around objects on the screen.
Note: The X-Reality Engine performs
Interlace-to-Progressive (IP) conversion and upscaling as required.
Film-based 24 frames-per-second content undergoes special IP conversion to
reduce the "stair-step jaggies" that can form at high-contrast edges.
NTSC/ATSC/QAM Tuners: The TV is
equipped with an analog NTSC tuner, a digital ATSC/8VSB tuner, and a digital QAM
tuner for receiving unscrambled digital cable channels. It is not CableCARD
compatible. You do not need to connect an external HDTV set-top box in order to
receive High-Definition programming.
1080p Resolution: The
KDL-46EX720 has a full HD native resolution of 1920 x 1080 with over 2 million
pixels (more than twice the pixels of 720p HDTV). The TV's four HDMI inputs can
accept 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p and 1080p (60/24Hz) signals, and the component video
input can accept 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p (60Hz) signals. All video signals from standard definition and high
definition are upconverted to 1080p.
HD Video Inputs: The Sony
Bravia KDL-46EX720 provides High Definition HDMI and component video inputs.
- 4 HDMI (ver.1.4) Inputs: The KDL-46EX720 features four HDMI
1.4
inputs. The HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface)
terminals provide an uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface between
this TV and any HDMI-equipped A/V equipment.. The HDMI input will accept
1080p (60/24Hz), 1080i, 720p, 480p, and 480i signals. The HDMI 4 input shares a 3.5mm audio jack with the television's PC input. With an HDMI-to-DVI cable, you can
connect the TV to a DVI-equipped A/V component. When connecting to a
DVI-equipped component, the 3.5mm audio input is used and separate minijack audio
cable must be connected.
- Component Video Input: The
component video input will accept 1080p (60Hz), 1080i, 720p, 480p, and 480i signals.
If needed, Component Video input can be used as a composite video input instead.
Note: The TV is also equipped with a composite video
(480i only) input.
3D Ready: The Sony KDL-46EX720 gives you the option to enjoy
3D (three-dimensional) pictures and graphics. You can enjoy an immersive,
realistic movie and gaming experience in Full HD 1080p using Sony's proprietary
3D Active Glasses, (sold separately) and connecting a compatible 3D-ready
Blu-ray Disc Player, Satellite Receiver, or PlayStation3 gaming console (all
sold separately) to the HDTV via HDMI. When viewed through the active shutter
glasses, the on-screen image is precisely synchronized and delivered with the
Full HD 1080p image intact, for an optimum 3D viewing experience. Sony's 3D
technology displays high speed synchronized left- and right-eye images to
deliver an immersive 3D experience. And since each frame you see is shown at
Full HD resolution, the 3D action still offers razor-sharp detail. You can
adjust the following 3D settings.
- Display Mode: For switching between 3D and 2D display
modes.
- 3D Format: Select between 3 types of 3D formats based
on your video content.

for 3D viewing is 120° (left/right) at
3'-20'.
MotionFlow XR 240: Sony's MotionFlow XR 240
technology combines 120 frames-per-second with an advanced backlight blinking
system to simulate a 240 Hz effect. MotionFlow XR 240 provides smooth and
precise detail during fast-action scenes for fast action movies and sports by
reducing blur caused by quick camera movements, enhancing image sharpness, and
overall creating a clearer picture. You can select between 4 settings - Smooth,
Standard, Clear, or Clear Plus.
- Standard: Provides smooth picture movement for standard use.

to the original by applying a film-specific process.
24pTrue Cinema (24p Input Capability): Many movies are filmed at 24 frames per second
(fps) and prime time TV programs are video taped at 24p. Seizing on an
opportunity, some studios are taking a purist approach and encoding high
definition video content such as Blu-ray Disc in 24p. Sony wisely takes
advantage of this by including 24p input capability via HDMI on this television
producing images that are smooth and natural looking.
Infinite Dynamic Contrast Ratio: Dynamic contrast ratio
compares the luminance of a 100 IRE (white) signal with that of a 0 IRE (black)
signal. When the TV receives a 0 IRE signal the backlight is turned off and the
luminance measurement is 0.00 cd/m2. The resulting dynamic contrast
ratio is infinite.
LightSensor Technology: The TV's built-in Light Sensor automatically adjusts the picture
brightness based on the amount of light in the room. As a result, you can enjoy
automatic customized picture brightness and save energy without lifting a
finger.
Advanced Contrast Enhancer (ACE): The televisions Advance Contrast
Enhancer (ACE) automatically adjusts backlight and contrast to the most suitable
setting judging from the brightness of the screen. This setting is especially
effective for dark scenes, and will increase the contrast distinction for the
darker picture scenes. The ACE can be set to High, Medium, Low, or Off.
