Technical glossary
100Hz technology (Fig. 1)
In 100 Hz technology, the projected 
picture is built up at double the speed of 
classic 50 Hz technology. This is achieved 
by firstly saving the received picture in 
the device and then displaying it twice, 
one after the other, by predicting the 
sequence of images and pre-calculating 
them accordingly. The picture is perceived 
as being “steadier”. In the classic 
European 50-Hz standard technology, 
a new picture is set up 50 times per 
second, resulting in a picture frequency  
of 50 Hz. The human eye can still perceive 
a picture change at this frequency as 
a flicker, which only disappears at a 
frequency of around 75   Hz.
3D comb filter
A 3D comb filter is effective during still 
picture sections and perfectly separates 
the luminance and colour signals
10-bit Video Digital  /Analogue 
  Converter
In Loewe DVD recorders, this converter   – 
in contrast to conventional circuitry   – 
reproduces every detail of the picture 
source authentically. This results in   razor-sharp, precise images even when faced 
with dark film sequences.
24-bit Audio Digital/Analogue 
  Converter
Ensures maximum precision when 
 
audio signals are processed in a DVD 
recorder or audio system. This converter 
provides a dynamic bandwidth, 
outstanding signal-to-noise ratio and 
superior resistance to interference and 
component deterioration.
24p cinema film display (Fig. 2)
Films are shot at 24 complete pictures 
per second; European PAL standard  productions for television and DVD are 
shown on sets with 25 complete pictures 
per second. Until now, this difference 
has led to visible side-effects. Since the 
creation of high-definition media such 
as Blu-ray discs, it is now possible to 
experience the original cinema quality 
at home. In order to do so, the 24p 
play back format must be supported by 
the Blu-ray player and the television. 
Of course, all new Loewe TVs and 
the Loewe Blu-ray player feature 24p 
cinema film display. In order to avoid 
large-scale flickering at this relatively 
low picture repetition rate of 24 Hz, 
each image is shown four times, as it is 
Technical information. Glossary.

in good cinemas, increasing the picture 
repetition rate to 96 Hz. And because the 
new Loewe TVs can calculate additional 
interpolated images when the optional 
digital movie mode is activated, they also 
avoid the jerkiness typical in cinemas 
during pan shots, for example. In any 
event, the result is an extremely realistic 
picture experience.
5.1 Multi Channel Audio/  
Digital Multi-Channel Audio
Dolby Digital and MPEG 2 audio decoders 
provide 5 separate audio channels with 
full frequency bandwidth and a separate 
channel for the bass range (subwoofer). 
That’s why it’s called 5.1 digital 
multichannel audio. Blu-ray players, DVD 
recorders, audio systems and TV sets 
with HD +
 technology can process this 
innovative surround encoding procedure 
for surround sound like in the cinema.
A
Analogue reception
Besides the standard integrated or 
extendable digital reception options, all 
Loewe TV sets always receive analogue 
TV signals via antenna or cable insofar 
as the corresponding programmes are 
broadcast in analogue reception quality.
Assist +
Loewe televisions feature the newly 
developed intelligent Loewe operating 
system, Assist +
. It has a clearly-structured, 
easy-to-use guide and a simple overall 
design. Navigation requires just a few 
buttons on the Assist remote control. 
With the new design, infrequently used 
sub-menus are faded out so the menu 
doesn’t cover the whole TV screen. 
Settings such as volume and personal 
Videotext pages can be saved. With 
the HD +
 technology, you can edit up to 
6   favourites lists of 99 channels each –   
so everyone at home can find their 
favourite channel quickly.
Automatic Channel Programming (ACP)
Registers all receivable channels the 
first time you switch on the television – 
even those received by the integrated 
satellite tuner – and programs them in 
a country or network-specific sequence. 
Abbreviated channel designations are 
copied directly, if provided by the station.
Automatic Movie Detection (AMD)
On programmes transmitted in a 
format with black bars across the top 
and bottom of the screen, the set 
automatically recognises whether a zoom 
display is possible and switches to the 
optimum zoom factor, i.e. the image is 
shown with reduced bars or none at all.
Automatic switch-off
With the automatic switch-off function, 
the television set turns itself off after a 
pre-programmed period of time, or when 
the TV is on stand-by without a tuner 
signal for more than 15 minutes.
Automatic Volume Control (AVC)
Automatically smoothes out sudden 
increases in volume when changing 
channels or during commercials. The 
volume remains approximately the same. 
This function depends on the signal 
format emitted by station.
AV port
This is a port on the front of the TV set 
for S-VHS/-Hi-8-camcorder (Hosiden 
connector), VHS-8mm camcorder   
(video RCA/phono jack) and for sound 
(stereo RCA/phono jack). It facilitates 
copying from a camcorder, for example, 
to a connected DVD recorder.
B
Bass Reflex
Speaker chassis in closed cabinets absorb 
sound components emitted to the rear. 
Bass reflex speakers feature a precisely 
calculated opening in the cabinet to 
use this reflected sound. This opening 
produces broad low range bass imaging 
and higher acoustic pressure.
Black Level Expander
Grey pictures are corrected towards 
black. Contrast and the depth of focus 
impression are thus increased.
C
CD Text
In addition to music, audio CDs can also 
store text such as the CD name and artist. 
Devices equipped with this feature display 
this additional information.
Child Lock
Blocks selected channels or the whole TV 
set using a PIN code. This feature can be 
set for activation at a certain time of day 
or above a certain age.
Cinema
Cinema mode enlarges the 4 : 3 picture 
for proportionally correct display on a   
16 : 9 screen.
Colour Transient Improvement (CTI)
Improves the colour signals and ensures   
a sharper edge demarcation with a 
special edge control switch.
Comb filter
Comb filter is the term used to describe 
a filter circuit that can re-separate 
frequency spectra such as luminance or 
colour signals interlaced according to 
a fixed pattern. On conventional sets 
this separation is performed by simple 
filter circuits. However, parts of the 
other respective components are hereby 
retained in the separated signals. This 
leads to unavoidable interference. Comb 
filters separate both spectra practically 
interference-free. The result is clearly 
defined picture borders and higher 
definition with stiller pictures.
Common Interface (CI-Slot)
Common Interface is a standard interface. 
Coded digital channels may be used 
by inserting the appropriate decoding 
module (Conditional Access Module) and 
an activated Smartcard.
 
						

							A normal bass reflex tube, as 
used in CRT sets, takes up too 
much room in an LCD set.That’s why it is folded in flat-
screen TV sets – the 9 equal 
sections take up less room.
Fig. 3, CRX®-Soundsystem
Conditional Access Module (CA-Modul)
The CA module contains the decoding 
system and compares the transmitted code 
with that on the SmartCard. If the two 
match, the corresponding programmes are 
decoded. CA modules for commercially 
available decoding systems (e. 
g. Irdeto, 
Cryptoworks, Viaccess) are available from 
specialist retailers.
Copy-to-DR +
 function
A function in the Loewe Viewvision DR +
 
DVB-T DVD recorder, which enables 
content such as digital photos or MP3 
audio files to be copied from the USB 
memory or CD onto the DVD recorder’s 
integrated hard disk.
CRX
®-Soundsystem (Fig. 3)
When speakers are flat, the CRX
® Sound 
System (Coaxial Reflex Sound System) 
makes it possible to accommodate the 
necessary bass reflex pipe, providing 
rich bass playback on flat-screen TV sets 
without loss of sound.
Custom File
This function allows you to save your 
favourite songs on a particular CD in the 
memory of the device (max. 20 entries). 
The selected songs are then played in the 
order programmed without interruption. 
The programmed selection is saved and 
will be available the next time the same 
CD is inserted.
D
Diagonal Contour Control (DCC)
Diagonal lines come across as steps 
on large screens, especially during 
movement. DCC considerably reduces this 
effect. Diagonal lines are thus displayed 
smoothly during camera movement and 
without a “stair-step effect”.
Digital Link
Digital Link allows Equipment products to 
be operated, even if they are in concealed 
set-ups. Connection to a Loewe TV set 
with a fully wired Scart cable is required 
for this. Digital Link Plus
The TV set and DVD recorder exchange 
data via Scart (e.g. analogue programme 
list or timer data). This allows the TV set 
to control recording.
Digital Link HD
TV set and external device exchange 
 
data via the HDMI interface and make   
the system easier to operate.
Digital Movie Mode (DMM)
Studio recording, live broadcast or 
feature film – the broadcast image is 
always optimally decoded. Still images 
are played back with maximum sharpness 
and completely motionless. DMM 
creates intermediate images to enable 
perfect studio quality, even with quick 
movements.
Digital Noise Control (DNC)
Weak (analogue) TV signals can cause 
annoying picture noise. DNC works to 
digitally suppress this noise.
Digital Power Amplifier
In comparison to conventional analogue 
amplifiers, the digital signal is amplified 
here. Only then does the conversion from 
digital to analogue take place. The energy 
is more efficiently used (90  % efficiency) 
and is transformed into power output. 
The use of digital components enables 
the development of smaller and slimmer 
amplifiers.
DivX
A format for compressing video data. Dolby Digital
The digital standard for high-quality 
home cinema systems. With this standard 
individual channels are transmitted 
separately. The three front channels 
on the right, left and centre, the two 
surround channels on the right and left 
and the external subwoofer channel are 
also termed as a 5.1 signal.
Dolby Digital Plus
Dolby Digital Plus is a new, improved 
process for encrypting audio signals. It is 
compatible with modern home cinema 
systems and is supported by Loewe Blu-
ray players, for example.
Dolby ProLogic 
Converts Dolby coded stereo signals into 
surround sound. It usually features four 
channels (left, centre, right, surround). 
 
No special subwoofer channel is created. 
Dolby ProLogic II 
A newer version of Dolby Pro Logic. 
Using highly advanced mathematical 
models this process generates six-channel 
surround sound (left, centre, right, 
surround right, surround left, subwoofer) 
from a stereo or Pro Logic signal.
Dolby TrueHD
is a surround sound format with no 
loss of quality for up to 7.1 channels 
developed for high-definition media 
such as Blu-ray. The audio data is 
uncompromised and therefore identical   
to the original recording in the studio.   
A separate decoder is required for 
playback. Dolby TrueHD is read by the 
Loewe Blu-ray player, for example, and 
then released to the digital output.
Dolby Virtual Speaker technology
Dolby Virtual Speaker technology simulates 
surround sound playback from a real 5.1 
channel speaker system with just two 
speakers. This uses advanced algorithms 
and technologies for room modeling, in 
order to reproduce the audio spectrum 
and dynamics of real 5.1 channel speakers. 
Dolby Virtual Speaker complements 
modern flat-screens and is ideal for rooms 
in which a 5.1 speaker system cannot be 
used due to cost or installation effort.

Downscaling/upscaling
By connecting various Equipment 
products via a digital AV interface the 
TV set receives different signals in 
different resolutions. The electronic 
system in the TV recognises this and 
automatically adjusts the resolution 
to match the display resolution. This 
means, for example, that when a laptop 
is connected, the 640 x 480 pixels 
resolution is automatically upgraded to 
the optimal display resolution of 1,366 x 
768 pixels.
dts – Digital Theatre Sound
Along with the well-known Dolby Digital 
5.1 format, many films are now mixed in 
the dts Digital Surround format in order 
to achieve an effective 5.1 surround 
sound effect. Loewe DVD recorders,     
Blu-ray players and audio systems support 
dts surround sound.
dts HD
is a new sound format, in which high-
definition audio signals are encrypted 
with up to 7.1 channels. It is compatible 
with current 5.1 home cinema systems 
and is supported by Loewe Blu-ray 
players, for example. dts HD is available 
in two forms: as dts HD High Resolution 
(HR) Audio, where data is compromised, 
saving memory, and dts HD Master 
Audio, which is uncompromised and 
therefore identical to the original mix in 
the sound studio. 
DR +
The integrated DR +
 hard disk recorder is 
optionally available ex works for almost 
all Loewe TVs. This allows you to record 
television programmes very easily at the 
touch of a button, or interrupt the current 
programme by pressing the pause button 
on your Loewe remote control, and even 
rewind television with the backwards 
button. HDTV programmes can also be 
recorded this way.Dynamic contrast ratio
Panel luminosity is adjusted when the 
picture features a high proportion of 
black. The so-called backlights are 
automatically dimmed and the contrast 
ratio is increased dynamically for this 
picture.
E
Electronic Programme Guide (EPG)
The EPG is updated daily to guide you 
through digital television programming 
directly on-screen. EPG provides 
an advance view of several days’ 
programmes for individual stations. 
Service information/next view data 
reception is required for this. When 
marked accordingly, programmes can be 
recorded, the station changed or the TV 
even switched on from stand-by mode.
Ext. 16 : 9 Mode
This enables the play-back of 16 : 9 
pictures from external sources, that were, 
for example, recorded using a 16 : 9 
camcorder. Only the width of the picture 
needs to be expanded to display the 
correct picture proportions on 16 : 9   
TV sets.
F
Favourites lists
With the help of 6 favourites lists, 
favourite channels can be easily saved 
and accessed quickly at any time. Each 
favourites list can be filled with up to 
99 channels. Favourites lists can be 
put together according to individual 
requirements (for example, according 
to categories such as Film, Sport, Family 
or according to user). The favourites 
lists also have the advantage of storing 
channels from various signal sources in 
the desired order.
Full-HD 100Hz LCD technology
Full-HD-100 Hz LCD displays are suitable 
for processing the 100 Hz picture 
repetition rate. These LCD displays have   
a resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 pixels in   
16 : 9 format.
Dual Laser 
Different types of discs such as DVDs or 
CDs place different demands on the laser. 
That’s why Loewe puts two lasers in all 
DVD players and audio systems. One laser 
is designed especially to read DVDs and 
a second is used to read CDs (including 
home recorded CD-Rs or CD-RWs). As 
each laser is specifically designed for 
one task, the best audio and video 
performance is guaranteed.
DVB
  
 
DVB describes the standards currently 
established in Europe for broadcasting 
digital content (e.  g. television, radio, 
multi-channel sound, EPG, Teletext and 
other additional services). The most 
important standards today are DVB-T, 
DVB-C and DVB-S/S 2.
  DVB-T 
DVB-T describes the digital broadcast of 
content via the antenna (Terrestrial).
 DVB-C    
DVB-C describes the digital broadcast of 
content via the cable network.
 DVB-S bzw. DVB-S 2 
 
DVB-S describes the digital broadcast of 
programmes via satellite. DVB-S 2 is a 
further developed version of this standard 
and increases the transfer rate by up 
to 30 % (through the use of improved 
codification, modulation and error 
correction processes). Today, the majority 
of HDTV content is broadcast in the 
DVB-S 2 standard.
DV Port
The DV port is required to connect a 
camcorder with a suitable output to a 
DVD recorder. The connection type is   
also known as FireWire.
DVD Audio
This high-definition audio format provides 
top-quality sound that is even better than 
a conventional CD. In addition to music, 
DVD audio can also offer visual elements 
such as lyrics, still frames and animations. 
Just as with DVD video, DVD audio can 
contain videos with the Dolby Digital 5.1 
audio format.
 
						

							Full-HD LCD technology (Fig. 4)
Full-HD-LCD displays can show the 
supplied 1,920 x 1,080 pixel 1:1 
resolution in 16 : 9 format.
H
HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital  
Content Protection) 
HDCP is the digital copy protection 
accepted by film studios. Films protected 
this way can only be shown via the digital 
inputs if the DVI or HDMI interface of 
both the feeding device and the display 
feature HDCP.
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia 
Interface)
HDMI is the new standard for 
connection and interfaces in consumer 
electronics. Picture and audio signals are 
transmitted in a purely digital form with 
unprecedented brilliance and quality. For 
videos, HDMI is PIN compatible with DVI.
HD ready  
HD ready is used to describe sets that are 
able to display HDTV signals on screen. 
HD ready sets have a native resolution of 
at least 720 lines on a 16  : 9 scren format. 
Furthermore, at least one component 
port is available, such as a HDMI or DVI 
port with HDCP.
HDTV 
HDTV stands for “high-definition 
television”. Whereas TV pictures 
conforming to the current PAL standard 
consist of 625 lines, HDTV has 1,080 scan 
lines (European standard in full-screen 
mode). The advantages of this are a 
considerable improvement in sharpness 
and impressive depth. The HDTV logo 
marks sets which are capable of receiving 
and processing high-definition signals.
HDTV 1080p  
This describes Full-HD flat-screen TVs that 
are suitable for receiving, processing and 
displaying high-definition programmes 
with 1080p (incl. 24p cinema film 
display support). Loewe sets with HD +
 
technology and Full-HD display meet the 
requirements for this logo. Help function
On the Assist
+
 menu on Loewe TV sets, 
pressing the Info key calls up information 
about each menu option. This makes it 
easier to learn how to operate Assist +
.
Home Cinema
With an external loudspeaker system you 
can turn your television into your own 
home cinema. For a surround sound 
experience, a decoded Dolby Digital 
sound signal is normally divided between 
five speakers and a subwoofer. It’s also 
possible to create the impression of 
surround sound with fewer speakers, e.  g. 
with Virtual Dolby Speaker technology.
Home networking with RS 232
Many Loewe sets feature an integrated 
RS 232 interface, also available as an 
upgrade kit, which allows Loewe to be 
easily incorporated into existing and new 
home network systems such as those 
from AMX or Crestron. The operator 
panel of the network system acts as the 
control centre, meaning that the TV set 
can be controlled from any position in 
the house. The Loewe customer can, for 
example, switch their TV and radio on 
and off, change channel and mute. A 
DR +
 recording can also be activated from 
the Touch Panel – even if the TV set isn’t 
actually on at that moment.
Hybrid tuner
Receiver for both analogue and digital 
programmes. In addition to analog cable 
and antenna signals, Loewe’s current 
hybrid tuner can receive DVB-T and   
DVB-C programmes. That means that 
digital television requires no additional 
tuner. The hybrid tuner is an integral  
part of the TV set.
I
Image +
Image +
 is responsible for the unique 
image quality on a Loewe display. With 
Loewe Image +
, pictures are so vivid, 
you’d think they were real. Loewe Image +
 
is the technological response to the 
digital HDTV future. Depending on the   
set model, various systems developed   
by Loewe work together with the   
display to create consistently brilliant   
and realistic images.
Image +
 Active
Image +
 Active encompasses a package 
of individual image enhancement 
technologies. Special technologies such 
as Image +
 Contrast, Image Colour +
 or 
Image +
 Sharpness display individual 
pictures with even greater sharpness, 
contrast and colour fidelity. A contrast 
sensor in Image +
 Contrast HD measures 
room brightness and adapts the television 
contrast accordingly. The Image +
 
Sharpness HD 3D comb filter ensures that 
fine structures and features are displayed 
in even greater detail. Image +
 Colour   HD 
eliminates what are known as cross 
colour effects that may occur with fine 
patterns, while Image +
 Motion ensures 
exceptionally steady picture quality 
during camera movement. Image +
 Active 
perfects picture optimisation, even for HD 
signals. Thanks to the individual modules, 
100 Hz, 24p motion picture display and 
HD Motion dejuddering, additionally used 
on many Loewe TV sets, pictures flow 
beautifully, are extremely sharp and rich 
in detail, even when it comes to rapid 
movement.
