Cinema mode : selecting AUTO, the deinterlacer deter-
mines automatically whether or not the video signal comes
from a movie film (processed on Telecine equipment using
3:2 or 2:2 pulldown) and applies a deinterlacing algorithm
optimised for this type of signal. If on the other hand the video
signal does not come from a film, or the OFF option is selected,
the deinterlacer applies a “motion compensated” algorithm
optimised for signals generated by TV cameras.

incoming signal is processed. Selection of the most appro-
priate setting for a given incoming signal will optimise the
horizontal and vertical definition of the picture and improve

-
trast, colour, sharpness and hue settings have been made,

Videotext
Videotext is a text information service broadcast by some
channels in the form of a video newspaper providing reports on
items of specific interest. Videotext information is divided typi-
cally into pages (individual screens) classified by topic, each
identified by a 3 digit number, some also containing sub-pages.
One page (normally page 100) contains the table of contents
listing the various topics and the relative page numbers. If the
channel you are viewing is one that offers a Videotext service,
it can be consulted as described below.
Note: In practice, Videotext is transmitted in a number of diffe-
rent configurations, depending on the broadcaster, and some
of the consultation methods described below may not work on
the text service of the channel you happen to be watching. To
view Videotext, press button [9] on the remote control once. The
television picture disappears and is replaced by the table of
contents page of the Videotext service. If you want to keep the
picture on the screen, press button [11] on the remote control
and it will remain visible in translucent mode through the text.
Pressing the same button a second time, the text screen is
restored without the television picture underneath.
