TV Features
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.
Cinespeed 10-Bit LCD Panel: Toshiba's 10-bit LCD panel
provides 64 times more colors than a standard 8-bit panel, offering smoother
transitions between color changes and during subtle shade transitions. Toshiba's
REGZA Premium LCD Hi-Speed Cinespeed panels offer a refresh rate of 60 Hz and
fast response times of 8ms or faster for an ultra sharp picture, especially when
displaying fast-moving action scenes, and demanding video games. A wide
176-degree viewing angle ensures that you can enjoy this TV from any seat in
your room.
PixelPure 4G 14-Bit Digital Video Processing: Toshiba's 4th generation PixelPure video
processing system uses a 14-bit video DAC and constantly monitors changes in signal quality, content, and movement
to enhance sharpness, contrast, and color reproduction.
This advanced third-generation digital video processing system runs at a fast
333Mhz and is capable of producing 4,096 levels of gradation (16 times greater
than a standard 8-bit processor) for a smooth, natural-looking picture without
image banding.
SRT Super Resolution Technology: SRT Super Resolution
Technology upconverts and enhances 480i/p and 720p input signals for a more
detailed picture, allowing all of your DVDs and TV channels to be displayed in
near High Definition picture quality. The Toshiba LCD TV displays
all inputs at a resolution of 1080p (1920 x 1080). The HDMI inputs will accept
1080p (24Hz/60Hz), 1080i, 720p, 480p, 480i, VGA, SVGA, XGA, WXGA and SXGA signals while the component video inputs
will accept 1080i, 720p, 480p and 480i. The SRT features offers five settings -
Auto, Mode 1, Mode 2, Mode 3, or Off.
ClearFrame 120Hz Anti-Blur Technology: This advanced system
virtually eliminates motion blur without decreasing image brightness, or adding
flicker. Images are now crisp and clear regardless of image motion. ClearFrame
doubles the displayed frame rate to 120 frames per second or 120 Hz. ClearFrame
utilizes superior Motion Vector Frame Interpolation (MVFI) technology. Utilizing
the power of the PixelPure processor, MVFI creates new frames, inserting them
between the original frames.
DynaLight Dynamic Back-Light Control: Toshiba's DynaLight Technology
monitors the brightness level of each video frame, and automatically adjusts the
backlight intensity based on the image content. Precise signal analysis offers
256 levels of backlight intensity. This creates dynamic contrast up to 5X that
of the original panel contrast, resulting in a deeper black level that increases
detail and depth, even in low light environments.
ColorBurst Wide Color Gamut CCFL: ColorBurst expands the
number of available colors and improves the color accuracy. This significantly
improves both color purity and color saturation. The combination of ColorBurst
and superior video processing creates colors that are more vibrant, more
natural, and more enjoyable.
CableClear DNR:
Designed to optimize poor NTSC signals from antenna or cable, this noise
reduction system eliminates video noise ("snow") for a clean crisp image. This
system detects the quality of the incoming video signal, and automatically
applies the needed amount of video optimization.

Picture Size: When viewing a
source, you can choose one of the following picture sizes:
- Natural: image is
displayed close to its originally formatted proportion
- Theater Wide 1: the picture is
non-uniformly enlarged; the center of the picture remains close to its true
proportion, but the left and right edges are stretched wider to fill the
screen, used primarily with a 4:3 source
- Theater Wide 2: entire
picture is uniformly enlarged, used primarily with a widescreen source
- Theater Wide 3: picture is
non-uniformly enlarged; the picture is stretched wider to fill the width of
the screen and stretched slightly taller
- Full: mainly
designed for receiving a squeezed 4:3 signal (a 16:9 [480i, 480p] programs squeezed into
a 4:3 transmission), the picture is stretched wider to
fill the screen, but not taller, none of the picture is
hidden
- 4:3 HD: provides a 4:3
aspect ratio of a 720p, 1080i or 1080p signal; sidebars fill the empty
vertical spaces while not distorting the picture from its original size
- Native: when receiving a
720p, 1080i or 1080p signal program,
Native Mode restores the size of the picture by the 3-5% that is generally
lost during the normal over-scanning that occurs on traditional sets. It
also avoids unnecessary scaling of HD signals that can reduce overall image
resolution and picture quality.
- Dot-by-Dot: non-scaling display for VGA, SVGA, XGA, WXGA and SXGA
sources only
