Adjusting monitor settings
Video Adjust menu
These settings apply only to SD (standard definition) video at 480i and 
below.
Sharpness—Adjusts sharpness for video images.
Noise Reduction—Uses noise reduction filters that adapt to the amount 
of noise and motion from the video source.
Video Scaling—Sets video aspect ratios and scaling between Wide, 
Zoom, 1:1, and Panoramic modes.
Wide mode
   stretches a standard 
broadcast or full-frame image to fill the 
entire screen. Widescreen (1.76:1) images 
fill the entire screen without distortion, 
while widescreen (1.85:1 and 2.35:1) 
images appear without distortion but with black bars at the top and 
bottom.
Zoom mode
   crops off a portion of a 
widescreen image in order to fill the entire 
screen with a distortion-free and black 
bar-free image.
1:1 mode
   preserves the movie’s original 
aspect ratio, so a standard broadcast or 
full-frame movie appears with black bars on the 
left and right of the image.
Panoramic mode
   uses selective 
distortion to stretch a standard broadcast 
or full-frame image to fill the entire screen. 
Unlike Wide mode, Panoramic mode 
stretches only the left and right sides of the 
image, and leaves the center of the image distortion free.
Film Mode Detection with Bad Edit Detection and Correction—Film 
Mode Detection detects frame rates of the source image and adapts the 
frame rate of the display for ultimate image quality. Bad Edit Detection 
and Correction corrects for incorrectly synchronized video.
Auto Video Enhance—Enables DCDi, Cross Color Reduction, and MADI 
for optimized video performance.
DCDi by Faroudja
—Directional Correlation De-interlacing reduces 
jagged edge artifacts on diagonal lines.
Cross Color Reduction
—Reduces cross-color artifacts, such as 
unintentional flashing colors or rainbow patterns, that result from 
composite video signals.
MADI
—Motion-Adaptive De-Interlacing ensures a more static 
(flicker-free) display image for image sections not containing moving 
elements, and ensures smoother edges for moving elements.
