A Guide to Digital TV

???What is Digital Television?

Digital television (DTV) is a new way of transmitting high quality video and audio to your TV set. Using DTV, broadcasters can transmit high definition TV (HDTV) images, Dolby digital surround audio, and new services such as multicasting (transmitting more than one program on the same TV channel) and datacasting. Several of these services can be combined into a single digital broadcast.

Digital Television Services

???Digital Picture Quality

DTV programs are transmitted in two different formats. The first is Standard Definition Television (SDTV) and the second is High Definition Television (HDTV).

???SDTV program formats include 480-line interlaced (480i) and 480-line progressive (480p) video. 480i programs are essentially a digital version of our current analog TV programs, while the 480p format offers improved image detail over 480i. Some 480p programs are broadcast in widescreen and are comparable to progressive-scan DVD movies in image quality.

???HDTV program formats include 1080-line interlaced (1080i) and 720-line progressive (720p). Both HDTV formats are always broadcast in widescreen, and offer much higher picture quality than SDTV.

???Dolby Surround Sound

With DTV, you can listen to a variety of Dolby digital audio formats from Dolby Surround 2.0 to Dolby Digital 5.1 surround, using your home audio system. Many HDTV programs are now broadcast with DD 5.1 soundtracks.

CableCARD and Digital Cable Ready TVs

CableCARD and Digital Cable Ready TVs are the products of a new digital cable standard.

This new standard is called OpenCable and it is a concerted effort to standardize the digital cable service network interface in North America. For more information, please refer to www.cablelabs.com.

Digital Cable Ready TVs are equipped with a proper digital cable tuner to receive digital cable signals from your local cable service provider. They are also designed to work with digital cable card modules (PCMCIA card modules called CableCARDs). These PCMCIA card modules or CableCARDs will be provided by your local cable service provider after a proper subscription process.

The provided CableCARD from your local cable service provider needs to be inserted into the CableCARD slot of a Digital Cable Ready TV. Please refer to page 22 for how to insert the CableCARD. A digital set-top box which used to be provided by the cable service provider is no longer needed with Digital Cable Ready TVs and CableCARDs.

When CableCARD is inserted into the slot, the TV screen will show the message that CableCARD is inserted and tries to download necessary data such as channel information or subscription information from your digital cable service provider. When you insert CableCARD for the first time, this process could take few minutes depending on the amount of data your cable provider needs to send.

During this process the digital cable service provider or CableCARD may display messages on the TV screen to help or give you further information.

Please contact your local cable provider for more information on service availability and how to acquire a CableCARD.

NOTE

???This television receiver supports the copy protection system regulated by DTLA (Digital Transmission Licensing Administrator). It should be noted that copy protected content may not be viewable depending on your particular connections.

Q&A

1.Is the antenna I use for existing TV reception good enough for DTV?

Over-the-air (OTA) digital TV broadcasting uses the same channels as analog TV and works well with many existing TV antennas. However, DTV broadcast channel assignments are different than analog channels. You should find out whether your local DTV broadcasts are on VHF (channels 2-13) or UHF (channels 14-69) to see if you need a different antenna.

If your DTV channels are on UHF and you already get good UHF reception, your present antenna may work fine. The same holds true for VHF DTV reception. Note that in some markets, both VHF and UHF channels are used for DTV broadcasts.

You can find out the latest DTV channel assignments for your area by browsing selected Internet web sites such as www.titantv.com, www.10000watts.com, and www.fcc.gov.

2.How difficult is it to receive DTV signals indoors?

This depends on whether your local DTV stations are running full power or not and how close your location is to the transmission tower. DTV receivers do not require as much signal as analog TV receivers to produce high-quality images and sound.

Once the DTV signal level exceeds a certain threshold at the receiver, the digital video and audio data is decoded at the same quality it was originally encoded for broadcast.

This is a big advantage for DTV over analog TV - there is no noise, ghosting, static, or scratchy audio.

3.How can I connect an antenna in my townhouse, co-operative apartment, condominium, or apartment?

The Federal Communications Commission???s OTARD Rule (part of the Telecommunications Act of 1996) allows residents of condominiums, townhouse, or members of neighborhood associations to put up outside antennas for reception of broadcast TV signals as long as those antennas are not located in common areas and are no more than 12??? in height.

Residents of rental units (apartments, etc.) are not covered by the OTARD rules and will have to use indoor antennas to receive DTV broadcasts. It is possible that the landlord of an apartment complex can provide broadcast DTV signals via a master TV antenna system to each apartment.

4.Can I connect my DTV set-top receiver to my cable TV service?

Cable TV systems use a different method for transmitting digital TV programs that is currently incompatible with broadcast DTV set-top receivers. So you will still need to use an outdoor or indoor antenna to receive OTA broadcast DTV programs.

The good news is that you won???t have to pay a monthly or per-program charge to watch OTA DTV and HDTV programs. They???re free, unlike subscription satellite TV or premium cable TV. All you need is an antenna and a DTV set-top receiver to enjoy clear, sharp widescreen images and high-quality audio.

5.I hear a Clicking sound in standby mode.

You will hear the sound if you have set both ANTENNA (Air) and Cable to ???Yes??? in the TV Guide On ScreenTM Setup.

However, do not worry about this since the sound comes from inside your TV while it receives data for your TV Guide.

Using the D-Net

What???s D-Net?

This refers to a home network consisting of devices supporting D-Net (IEEE1394) connections (such as digital VCRs and Set-Top Boxes) for digital audio and video data.

The D-Net (IEEE1394) standard for the High Performance Serial Bus is a serial data transfer protocol and interconnection system.

The main feature of the D-Net (IEEE1394) that assures its adoption for the digital video and audio (A/V) consumer application is its low cost.

D-Net (IEEE1394) interface is capable of supporting various high-end digital A/V applications, such as consumer A/V device control and signal routing, and home networking.

How to connect compatible IEEE1394 Devices

Connecting compatible IEEE1394 devices is simple using this TV equipped with IEEE1394.

A secure digital interface is provided to other digital home entertainment units, such as a DTV, a Set-Top Box, an AVHDD, a digital VCR, a MPEG Camcorder.

Select the D-Net (IEEE1394) 3 Compatible device.

Digital VCR (D-VHS)

NOTES

???To access D-Net (IEEE1394) in the menu, see page 111.

???The IEEE1394 interface is equipped with a copy protection standard called Digital Transmission Content Protection (DTCP).

???The name of 1394 Jack may be different according to their manufacturer (i.e., DTV LINK or i.LINK).

???The supported video format is MPEG-2 Digital video. Other digital video formats (e.g. DV format...) are not supported.

For audio, Dolby Digital and MPEG Digital Audio are supported, other digital audio formats (e.g. MP3, DTS) are not supported.

???Because IEEE1394 is an evolving technology, it is possible that some or all of the connectivity features of a device you connect to the TV through the IEEE1394 port may not operate.

English - 106

When Connecting D-Net (IEEE1394) Compatible devices

The last device in the chain may not be looped back to the TV as the TV may not be able to 1 work with the other devices.

To connect two or more D-Net (IEEE1394) Compatible devices, follow the diagram below.

NOTE

??? IEEE1394 cables longer than 14.76 feet (177.16 inches) should not be used between devices.

English - 107

Using the D-Net

Connection Options

There are two different connection options for connecting D -Net (IEEE1394) Compatible devices. Select the most suitable option according to your network of audio/video products.

The Direct Device-To-Device Option

D-Net (IEEE1394) permits the chaining of devices, unlike analog audio and video connection where each device needs to be individually connected to the TV. This allows you to connect your D-VHS to your 1394 Set-Top Box only, then connect the Set-Top Box to the TV.

More IEEE1394 devices can be added to the chain as needed. Each video device can be viewed on the TV???s D-Net and information can be sent from any IEEE1394 device to other compatible devices.

DTV STB

Digital VCR

The Hub Connection Option

D-Net (IEEE1394) also permits connecting devices using the TV as a hub. Each device is capable of sending information, which may include audio and video, to any other device on the network.

Other 1394 Device

English - 108

4-Pin and 6-Pin Connectors

Two different types of connectors are used for IEEE1394 terminals and cables, a 4-pin and a 6-pin type.

The 4-pin connector sends digital audio, digital video and digital control signals to and from devices. The TV has two available 4-pin connection jacks, of which two are at the back.

The 6-pin connector also sends digital audio, video and control signals, but can also send low voltage electrical power. There are no 6 pin connectors on this TV.

It is not possible to directly connect a 6-pin connector to a 4-pin jack, and vice versa. In order to connect a 6-pin device to a 4-pin device, an adaptor or adaptor cable is required, easily purchased from an electronic or computer store.

Connecting a 6-pin device (such as a camcorder) directly to the TV, (if it is designed to receive electrical power from another 6-pin device) will require that the camcorder is directly connected to the AC supply, or that the camcorder???s battery power is used.

-Although you have selected another device from the Device List, if detecting a video signal from the device fails, the ???Connection failed??? message appears and the screen automatically switches to the TV program.

-When the 1394 connection to the selected device is disconnected, the screen automatically switches to the TV program.

2)AVHDD, DVHS and camcorders automatically stop when you select another device while watching one of the devices.

3)Although some devices are displayed in the Device List, ???UNCONTROLLABLE??? may be displayed for some devices. This may happen when reading the device information has failed or the device does not contain the device information.

4)Some devices may not be recognized and may be disconnected from the 1394 connection when they are turned off.

5)When connecting another TV, the TV may transmit Digital TS which appears in the TV or another picture (e.g. Only RF may be transmitted, although DVHS is being displayed on the screen) depending on the TV specifications. (e.g. A Hurricane TV only transmits RF).

6)When connected to another STB, some STB???s may not be displayed in the Device List due to device specifications or defects when multiple devices are connected.

Even if the device is displayed in the Device List, the connection to the device may fail. In this case, you have to discover which device is defective by removing the devices one by one.

7)When connected to the AVHDD

-To rotate the AVHDD disc, there may a time delay.

-Some AVHDD???s may provide two playbacks or two recordings simultaneously. In this case, there may be two Play icons in the Program List and 2 AVHDD buttons in the Target List.

-If you copy a program from the Program List, the selected AVHDD program is played on the TV screen and recorded using the device selected from the Target List.

Even if the program reaches its end, the recording device does not stop automatically.

-Some AVHDD???s may display the wrong program information after recording, depending on the situation.

-If AVHDD is recording, the program is automatically played which is currently being recorded, when it is selected from the Device List. (PVR function)

8)When connected to DVHS

-Some devices support an automatic connect function (I-mode). These devices may cause a malfunction when multiple devices are connected.

9)When connected to a camcorder

-Depending on the camcorder mode of either Tape Mode or Camera Mode, the control panel changes. If the camcorder turns off the power (power saving mode), the camcorder may disappear from the Device List.

10)When multiple devices are connected, some devices may appear and then disappear periodically in the Device List. This is because some devices malfunction when multiple devices are connected.

In this case, you have to discover and remove the defective device from the connection by removing the devices one by one.

English - 114

11)When multiple devices are connected, the response time may be relatively long when selecting a device. This may happen when there is a device(s) that malfunctions and degrades the 1394 connection speed when multiple devices are connected.

In this case, you have to discover and remove the defective device from the connection by removing the devices one by one.

12)Copy Protection

-You can record a Copy-Free, or Copy-One-Generation screen.

-Although you cannot record a Copy-No-More, or Copy-Never screen, you can view it through another device.

13)When multiple devices are connected, and a device malfunctions while playing DVHS or AVHDD, the user may experience discontinuous screen play.

14)When playing and recording a program simultaneously using AVHDD, and the program is copy protected, the program may not play depending on whether the AVHDD device supports simultaneous copy protection.

Recording Tips

1)Recording using the Target List while also watching the screen being recorded.

-Check that the AVHDD and DVHS devices are connected.

-Select a source device to be recorded and press the Target button.

-Select a device to be recorded from the Target List.

2)Recording a program in the Program List of AVHDD using another device.
