Scenario mode in TV
Scenario mode has five preset viewing modes designed to give you the b\
est picture quality when watching a particular kind of programme. There are five p\
re-defined audio and video settings for optimal enjoyment of the following scenarios: Sta\
ndard TV, Movie, Sport, Concert, Game, NICE and User. 
ModeInformation
StandardStandard mode allows you to watch your favourite channels with sharp, brilliant imagery via adaptive brightness and contrast adjustments, and \
listen to clear-sounding audio.
Movie
For comfortably enjoying movies at home, Movie mode displays dim scenes in clear detail; compensates for colour; and smoothly presents motion images. This is accomplished through optimal Gamma correction plus saturation, brightness and contrast adjustments. Movie mode makes the most of high-definition movie soundtracks.
Sport
Sport mode is suited for outdoor sports programmes, with accurate background depth and clear gradation between the bright, outdoor playing field and darker auditoriums. Sports mode also brilliantly enhances colours and presents swiftly moving pictures without residual images. All of this is achieved via specific Gamma corrections and saturation adjustments. Precise audio can be heard.
Concert
Concert mode places you in a virtual concert hall, opera house or other dim environment by means of adaptive brightness and contrast adjustments. Concert mode accentuates symphonic harmonies and the tenor audio range.
Game
Game mode carefully details the exquisite graphics of modern video games, providing lifelike entertainment while protecting your eyesight b\
y adjusting brightness and contrast. What's more, Game mode provides a heightened audio experience.
NICE
NICE mode dynamically adjusts picture parameters according to the 
viewing distance set (see p2) and information transmitted with video 
signals. When this happens, a popup dialog will indicate that the displa\
y is being optimized.
UserUser mode allows you to save your favourite video and audio settings.
Default setting in different Empowering mode 
Pressing the Empowering Key will toggle between the different modes.
