VIDEO ENHANCEMENTS

BlackStripe II™ Picture Tube
Every picture tube has a shadow mask behind the glass that helps create the picture. BlackStripe II picture tubes utilize a special compound on the shadow mask to absorb unwanted light emissions. Tinting is also built into (not sprayed on) the glass when the tube is being formed to reduce unwanted light reflections. Together these improvements provide increased contrast, and an 18% increase in brightness.

Black Level Expander
BLE increases the Black Threshold Level (when the gun is producing no light in that area). This means that blacks are pure black, not slightly gray. This significantly improves overall picture contrast, making the image appear sharper and more three-dimensional.

Fine White
Reduces CRT output for narrow white peak areas. This avoids blooming and provides sharp edges between white areas and darker areas.

AUDIO ENHANCEMENTS

Surround Sound
Front Surround Sound takes a standard audio signal and simulates a surround sound effect. Using only the two speakers inside the TV, this system creates the feeling that you are enveloped in sound for a true home theater experience.

MTS Stereo / SAP with dbx®
A Multi-channel Television Sound decoder enables the television to accept and decode broadcast stereo. Unlike some systems, which delete dbx, MTS provides the full quality of the original stereo broadcast. Secondary Audio Program enables the reception of bi-lingual broadcasts, when available.

SPECIAL CONVENIENCES

Sleek Universal Remote
The Sleek Universal Remote is pre-programmed to operate the TV, and most brands of VCR and Cable Box. Virtually all TV functions can be easily accessed using only your thumb and the four cursor buttons.

New "V-Chip" Parental Control System
All new Toshiba TVs (13" and above) now include the new V-Chip. This feature allows parents to decide which show ratings are appropriate for their children. The TV will then block out the audio and video of any program that has a rating beyond that level. Parents can override the system at any time using their secret code.

Tri-Lingual Icon On-Screen Display
All TV functions can be easily accessed using the remote control and our Icon based on-screen display. This full-featured system can be operated in English, French, or Spanish. By using the four cursor buttons on the remote control, your favorite features or settings are only a click away.

Sleep Timer
At the touch of a button, Sleep Timer allows you to fall asleep watching TV and have the TV turn itself off up to three hours later (in 15 minute intervals).

Closed Captioning on Mute
Any time you press the Mute button, Closed Captioning is automatically engaged. So, if one viewer needs to hit mute to answer the telephone, another can still read along.

Channel Lock
Allows you to lock out channels that you do not want your children to view. These channels can be unlocked by inputting your secret code.

Power Return
If the power to the TV is discontinued while the TV is on, the TV power will return when the power returns. This is useful when the TV is connected to a switched outlet such as on a cable box.

Noise Muting
Audio noise (or hiss) will be muted when the TV tuner is on a channel without a signal.

Channel Return
Pressing this button returns you to the last channel you were viewing. This allows you to easily switch back and forth between two channels.

Favorite Channel
Allows you to input your 12 favorite channels, and easily scan through only those channels.

A/V Outputs
A/V outputs allow you to send the audio/video signal to a VCR for recording. The fixed audio outputs can also be sent to an A/V receiver, and provide a cleaner signal than variable audio outputs.

Energy Star Compliant
Energy Star is an EPA rating that designates that the TV has low power consumption to help the environment. Virtually all Toshiba TVs are Energy Star compliant.
