Chapter 6: Using the TV’s features
Labeling the video input sources
You can label each video input source according to the type of
device you connected to each source, from the following preset
list of labels:
• – – (default label)
• Audio Receiver
• Cable
• Compact Disc
• DTV
• DVD
• Game Console
• HD DVD
• HDMI Switch
• Laser Disk
• Satellite/DSS
• VCR
• Video Recorder
•
Hide (to hide an unused input in the
Input Selection
screen
and in the Channel Browser Inputs list)
Note: If you select PC in the Input Selection screen, you can
choose only “– –” or “Hide” as the label.
To label the video input sources:
1 Press Y and open the Preferences menu.
2 Highlight Input Labeling and press T.
3 Press B or b to highlight the video source you want to
label.
4 Press C or c to select the desired label for that input
source. If a particular input is not used, you can select
Hide as the label, which will cause that input to be
“grayed out” in the Input Selection screen and skipped
over when you press + on the remote control.
5 To save the new input labels, highlight Done and
press T.
To revert to the factory default labels, highlight Reset
and press T.
Input labeling example:
The screen below left shows the default Input Selection
screen (with none of the inputs labeled as a specific device).
The screen below right is an example of how you could label
the inputs if you connected a VCR to VIDEO 1, Cable TV to
VIDEO 2, a video recorder to ColorStream HD1, a DTV set-
top box to HDMI 1, a satellite/DSS set-top box to HDMI 2, and
a DVD player to HDMI 3. Also note that the ColorStream HD2
input is labeled “Hidden,” which means that input will be
skipped over when + is pressed.
To clear the input labels:
1 Press Y and open the Preferences menu.
2 Highlight Input Labeling and press T.
3 Highlight Reset and press T.
