Dynamic Edge LED Backlight with Frame Dimming Technology:
Dynamic Edge LED backlighting with frame dimming delivers pitch-black night
scenes and illuminates bright scenes so they pop with vibrant color; all in a
slimmer, more attractive design. Rather than illuminating the entire screen,
lighting is boosted in just the right areas for greater contrast and a more
realistic picture.
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. 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.
- 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.
HDTV Tuner: The TV has built-in over-the-air HDTV (ATSC) and
Digital Cable (QAM) tuners, so you don't need a separate set-top box to receive
and decode over-the-air HDTV/SDTV or unencrypted Digital Cable signals.
1080p Resolution: The Sony KDL-HX750 series television has a HD native
resolution of 1920 x 1080 (1080p). All video signals from
standard definition and high definition sources are displayed at 1920 x 1080. The Sony KDL-HX750 series
TV is equipped with HDMI, Component,
and Composite video inputs.
- 4 HDMI Inputs: The KDL-HX750 series features
four HDMI inputs. The HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) terminals
provide an uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. The HDMI input
will accept 1080p (60/24Hz), 1080i, 720p, 480p, and 480i signals. The HDMI 2 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,
the component video input can be used as a composite video input instead.
- Composite Video Input: The TV is also equipped with a composite video (480i only) input.
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.
MotionFlow XR 480: Sony's MotionFlow XR 480
technology combines 240 frames-per-second with an advanced backlight blinking
system to simulate a 480 Hz effect. MotionFlow XR 480 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.
- Smooth: Provides smoother picture movement for
film-based content.
- Clear: Reduces motion blur for high-speed picture
content.
- Clear Plus: Reduces motion blur while maintaining
brightness for high-speed picture content.
CineMotion: This function provides improved picture movement
and reduces picture blur and graininess for film-based content. There are two
settings.
- Auto 1: Provides smoother picture movement that the
original film-based content.
- Auto 2: Displays film-based content with picture
expression close to the original by applying a film-specific process.
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.
3D Ready: The Sony KDL-HX750 series LED-LCD TV 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, (158BR250, 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.

unreadable because of doubly-blurred letters on the screen)
- Over-Under: selecting this displays two
near-identical pictures one above the other for 3D viewing (wear the 3D
Glasses before setting "3D Format" as the instructions will otherwise be
unreadable because of doubly-blurred letters on the screen)
- 3D Depth Adjustment: For adjusting the depth of the 3D
image on the screen.
- Simulated 3D Effect: Use to heighten or lessen the 3D
effect when you display 2D pictures in simulated 3D.

Select" setting.
Note: The 3D display mode is automatically selected
when a 3D signal is detected. The recommended viewing angle and distance
for 3D viewing is 120° (left/right) at 3'-20'.
Wide Mode: The Wide Mode feature allows you to select the screen
display which fits the current video image and TV screen best. Based on the

Audio Features
ARC (Audio Return Channel): The Audio Return Channel in HDMI
1.4 enables a TV, via a single HDMI cable, to send audio data "upstream" to an
A/V receiver; increasing user flexibility and eliminating the need for any
separate S/PDIF audio connection. This feature allows audio to be sent from the
television to your A/V receiver through the same HDMI cable already being used
to send audio/video to the television. This eliminates the need for extra cables
connected to the TV. ARC allows audio from the TV tuner, Network connection,
inserted USB device, HDMI inputs, or any analog connected device to be heard
through your ARC compatible AV receiver via the television's HDMI ARC input. The
audio from the TV's tuner, network connection, and HDMI inputs can pass as Dolby
Digital or 2ch PCM. USB and analog connected devices will be output as 2ch PCM
only.
Note: Both the television and the receiver must support
ARC for this function to work properly. When connecting an A/V receiver that
is compatible with Audio Return Channel (ARC), connect it to the TV's HDMI
IN 1 port. If connecting a system that is incompatible Audio Return Channel
(ARC), an additional audio connection via Digital Audio Out (Optical) is
necessary.

sound images according to how you position the television. You can select
