MagicBright™

 

 
MagicBright™ is a new feature providing the optimum viewing environment depending on 
the contents of the image you are watching. Currently four different modes are available: 
Text, Internet, Entertain and Custom. Each mode has its own pre-configured brightness 
value. You can easily select one of four settings by simply pressing the MagicBright™ 
control button.  

1. Text: For documentations or works involving heavy text.  
2. Internet: For working with a mixture of images such as text and graphics.  
3. Entertain: For watching motion pictures such as a DVD or VCD.  
4. 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.
