Hi guys,
Just thought I'd share with you what I discovered last night....which I must say would not have been possible if not for all the gurus n this forum sharing their wisdom amongst us ......
I got into service mode on my 42" Viera in an attempt to adjust overscan which was set pretty bad from factory IMO. Using DVE and the overscan test pattern, I found that vertically picture was being cut off at the 10% marker, and just over 5% horizontally. So into service mode I got, and found the settings for Horz Size position and vertical etc. I adjusted to DVE's 2.5% safe marker and WOW!!! Amazing how much the picture improved. It was being stretched so much before I changed it.
I did however notice a whole other bunch of settings which I did not alter...but rather browsed. But now I'm curious as to what other settings I could play with.... I know....unless you know what you're doing...and you have the proper test equipment etc you shouldn't touch. I'm probably more interested in what these other settings do....eg, R and G gain, cut, drive etc...
Does anyone have service menu information...on all the parameters??
Also, I noticed that by putting bass to max and treble to min, pressing down volume on the front of the display while pressing index on the remote got me into service menu 1......how do I get to service menu 2...and what would I find in there???
Any extra info regarding Service menu would be sooooo greatly appreciated.
Thanks guys!
