MagicBright™  
[] 
 
 
 
 MagicBright™ is a new feature providing optimum viewing 
environment depending on the contents of the image you are 
watching. Currently four different modes are available: Custom, 
Text, Internet, and Entertain. Each mode has its own pre-
configured brightness value. You can easily select one of four 
settings by simply pressing MagicBright™ control button. 
1) Custom 
Although the values are carefully chosen by our engineers, the 
pre-configured values may not be comfortable to your eyes 
depending on your taste. 
If this is the case, adjust the brightness and contrast by using 
the OSD menu. 
2) Text : Normal brightness 
For documentations or works involving heavy text.
 
						

							 
 
   3) Internet : Medium brightness 
For working with a mixture of images such as text and graphics.
4) Entertain : High brightness 
For watching motion pictures such as a DVD or VCD.
