A Guide to Digital TV

What is Digital Television?  
Digital television (DTV) is a new way of transmitting high quality video and audio to your TV set. Using  
DTV, broadcasters can transmit high definition TV (HDTV) images, Dolby digital surround audio, and  
new services such as multicasting (transmitting more than one program on the same TV channel) and  
datacasting. Several of these services can be combined into a single digital broadcast.  
Digital Television Services

Digital Picture Quality  
DTV programs are transmitted in two different formats. The first is Standard Definition Television  
(SDTV) and the second is High Definition Television (HDTV).  
SDTV program formats include 480-line interlaced (480i) and 480-line progressive (480p) video. 480i  
programs are essentially a digital version of our current analog TV programs, while the 480p format  
offers improved image detail over 480i. Some 480p programs are broadcast in widescreen and are  
comparable to progressive-scan DVD movies in image quality.  
•
•
HDTV program formats include 1080-line interlaced (1080i) and 720-line progressive (720p).  
Both HDTV formats are always broadcast in widescreen, and offer much higher picture quality than  
SDTV.  
Dolby Surround Sound  
With DTV, you can listen to a variety of Dolby digital audio formats from Dolby Surround 2.0 to Dolby  
Digital 5.1 surround, using your home audio system. Many HDTV programs are now broadcast with  
DD 5.1 soundtracks.

CableCARD and Digital Cable Ready TVs  
CableCARD and Digital Cable Ready TVs are the products of a new digital cable standard.  
This new standard is called OpenCable and it is a concerted effort to standardize the digital cable service network  
interface in North America. For more information, please refer to www.cablelabs.com.  
Digital Cable Ready TVs are equipped with a proper digital cable tuner to receive digital cable signals from your local  
cable service provider. They are also designed to work with digital cable card modules (PCMCIA card modules called  
CableCARDs). These PCMCIA card modules or CableCARDs will be provided by your local cable service provider after a  
proper subscription process.  
The provided CableCARD from your local cable service provider needs to be inserted into the CableCARD slot of a  
Digital Cable Ready TV. Please refer to page 78 for how to insert the CableCARD.  
A digital set-top box which used to be provided by the cable service provider is no longer needed with Digital Cable  
Ready TVs and CableCARDs.  
When CableCARD is inserted into the slot, the TV screen will show the message that CableCARD is inserted and tries to  
download necessary data such as channel information or subscription information from your digital cable service provider.  
When you insert CableCARD for the first time, this process may take a few minutes depending on the amount of data  
your cable provider needs to send.  
During this process the digital cable service provider or CableCARD may display messages on the TV screen to help or  
give you further information.  
Please contact your local cable provider for more information on service availability and how to acquire a CableCARD.

Q&A  
1. Is the antenna I use for existing TV reception good enough for DTV?  
Over-the-air (OTA) digital TV broadcasting uses the same channels as analog TV and works well with many  
existing TV antennas. However, DTV broadcast channel assignments are different than analog channels.  
You should find out whether your local DTV broadcasts are on VHF (channels 2-13) or UHF (channels 14-  
69) to see if you need a different antenna.  
If your DTV channels are on UHF and you already get good UHF reception, your present antenna may work  
fine. The same holds true for VHF DTV reception. Note that in some markets, both VHF and UHF channels  
are used for DTV broadcasts.  
You can find out the latest DTV channel assignments for your area by browsing selected Internet web sites  
such as www.titantv.com, www.10000watts.com, and www.fcc.gov.  
2. How difficult is it to receive DTV signals indoors?  
This depends on whether your local DTV stations are running full power or not and how close your location  
is to the transmission tower. DTV receivers do not require as much signal as analog TV receivers to produce  
high-quality images and sound.  
Once the DTV signal level exceeds a certain threshold at the receiver, the digital video and audio data is  
decoded at the same quality it was originally encoded for broadcast.  
This is a big advantage for DTV over analog TV - there is no noise, ghosting, static, or scratchy audio.  
3. How can I connect an antenna in my townhouse, cooperative apartment, condominium, or  
apartment?  
The Federal Communications Commission’s OTARD Rule (part of the Telecommunications Act of 1996)  
allows residents of condominiums, townhouse, or members of neighborhood associations to put up outside  
antennas for reception of broadcast TV signals as long as those antennas are not located in common areas  
and are no more than 12’ in height.  
Residents of rental units (apartments, etc.) are not covered by the OTARD rules and will have to use indoor  
antennas to receive DTV broadcasts. It is possible that the landlord of an apartment complex can provide  
broadcast DTV signals via a master TV antenna system to each apartment.  
4. Can I connect my DTV set top receiver to my cable TV service?  
Cable TV systems use a different method for transmitting digital TV programs that is currently incompatible  
with broadcast DTV set-top receivers. So you will still need to use an outdoor or indoor antenna to receive  
OTA broadcast DTV programs.  
The good news is that you won’t have to pay a monthly or per-program charge to watch OTA DTV and  
HDTV programs. They’re free, unlike subscription satellite TV or premium cable TV. All you need is an  
antenna and a DTV set-top receiver to enjoy clear, sharp widescreen images and high-quality audio.

Installing Batteries in the Remote Control  
1. Lift the cover at the back of the remote control upward as shown in the figure.  
2. Install two AAA size batteries.  
Make sure to match the “+” and “–” ends of the batteries with the diagram inside the  
compartment.  
3. Replace the cover.  
Remove the batteries and store them in a cool and dry place if you won’t be using the remote  
control for a long time.  
The remote control can be used up to about 23 feet from the TV.  
(Assuming typical TV usage, the batteries last for about one year.)  
If the remote control doesn’t work, check the following:  
1. Is the TV power on?  
2. Are the plus and minus ends of the batteries reversed?  
3. Are the batteries drained?  
4. Is there a power outage, or is the power cord unplugged?  
5. Is there a special fluorescent light or neon sign nearby?

What is HDMI?  
•
HDMI, or high-definition multimedia interface, is a next-generation interface that enables  
the transmission of the digital audio and video signals using a single cable without  
compression.  
•
“Multimedia interface” is a more accurate name for it especially because it allows  
multiple channels of digital audio (5.1 channels).  
The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size, has  
the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed, and  
supports multi-channel digital audio.

Checking the Digital-Signal Strength  
Unlike analog channels, which can vary in reception quality from “snowy” to clear, digital (HDTV) channels have either perfect  
reception quality or you will not receive them at all. So, unlike analog channels, you cannot fine tune a digital channel.  
You can, however, adjust your antenna to improve the reception of available digital channels.

Using D-Net  
What’s D-Net?  
D-Net refers to a home network consisting of devices supporting D-Net (IEEE1394) connection (such as digital VCRs and  
Set-Top Boxes).  
D-Net (IEEE1394) interface is capable of supporting various high-end digital A/V applications, such as A/V device control and  
signal routing, Digital Video (DV) editing, home networking.  
How to connect compatible IEEE1394 Devices  
Connecting compatible IEEE1394 devices is simple using this TV.  
A secure digital interface is provided to other digital home entertainment units, such as a DTV, a Set-Top Box,  
an AV-HDD, a digital VCR, a MPEG Camcorder.

To access D-Net (IEEE1394) in the menu, see page 87.  
The IEEE1394 interface is equipped with a copy protection standard called Digital Transmission Content Protection (DTCP).  
The name of 1394 Jack on the external device may be different according to the manufacturer (i.e., DTV LINK or i.LINK).  
The supported video format is MPEG-2 Digital video. Other digital video formats (e.g. DV format...) are not supported. For  
audio, Dolby Digital and MPEG Digital Audio are supported, other digital audio formats (e.g. MP3, DTS) are not supported.  
Because IEEE1394 is an evolving technology, it is possible that some or all of the features of a device you  
connect to the TV through the IEEE1394 port may not operate.  
There may be a single IEEE1394 jack depending on the specifications of the external device.

Connection Options  
There are two different connection options for connecting D -Net (IEEE1394) compatible devices.  
Select the most suitable option according to your network of audio/video products.  
The Direct Device-To-Device Option  
D-Net (IEEE1394) permits the chaining of devices, unlike  
analog audio and video connections where each device needs to  
be individually connected to the TV. This allows you to connect  
your D-VHS to your 1394 Set-Top Box only, then connect the  
Set-Top Box to the TV. More IEEE1394 devices can be added to  
the chain as needed. Each video device can be viewed on the  
TV’s D-Net and information can be sent from any IEEE1394  
device to other compatible devices.  
DTV STB  
Digital VCR  
The Hub Connection Option  
D-Net (IEEE1394) also permits connecting devices using the TV as a hub. Each device is capable of sending  
information, which may include audio and video, to any other device on the network.

4-Pin and 6-Pin Connectors  
Two different types of connectors are used for IEEE1394 terminals and cables, a 4-pin and a 6-pin.  
The 4-pin connector sends digital audio, digital video and digital control signals to and from devices.  
The TV has two available 4-pin connection jacks, of which two are at the back.  
The 6-pin connector also sends digital audio, video and control  
signals, but in addition, sends low voltage electrical power.  
There are no 6 pin connectors on this TV.  
It is not possible to directly connect a 6-pin connector to a 4-pin jack,  
and vice versa. In order to connect a 6-pin device to a 4-pin device,  
an adaptor or adaptor cable is required, easily purchased from an  
electronics or computer store.  
Connecting a 6-pin device (such as a camcorder) via an adapter to the TV, (if it is designed  
to receive electrical power from another 6-pin device) will require that the camcorder be directly  
connected to the AC supply, or that the camcorder’s battery power be used.

What is EIA-775? : EIA-775 is an OSD standard that enables the control of external 1394 devices using  
functions such as Play, Stop, etc.  
What is CEA-931? : This is a standard for controlling external IEEE1394 devices with the TV remote control and  
not the remote control of the external device.  
For example, to play D-VHS, you press the Play button of the TV instead of the Play button of the D-VHS, the  
Play command is transmitted to the DVHA through the IEEE1394 connection.  
*
What is Time-Shift Mode? : This refers to a function that plays the file currently being recorded on the  
selected AV-HDD. At this time, the recording time appears at the top right of the  
screen and the playing time is displayed at the bottom left of the screen.  
For example: If you are currently 45 minutes into a one hour recording, you can  
backtrack and view the first 45 minutes without affecting the recording.  
In the Time-Shift Control Panel, the Move to Recording Position and Recording  
stop buttons are added to the basic AV-HDD Control Panel.

Operating Tips  
1) When the screen is switched to the TV program.  
- When you select the first button, the DTV button, in the Device List, it switches to the TV program.  
- Although you have selected another device from the Device List, if detecting a video signal from  
the device fails, the “Connection failed” message appears and the screen automatically switches  
to the TV program.  
- When the 1394 connection to the selected device is disconnected, the screen automatically  
switches to the TV program. If you reconnect the device, the reconnected device is automatically selected.  
2) When connected to a AV-HDD  
- When a AV-HDD disc is rotating, there may be a time delay.  
- Some AV-HDDs may provide two playbacks or recordings simultaneously. In this case, there  
may be two Play icons in the File List and 2 AV-HDD buttons in the Target List.  
- If you copy a file from the File List, the selected AV-HDD file is played on the TV screen and recorded  
using the device selected from the Target List.  
If the file reaches its end, the recording device will stop automatically.  
- Some AV-HDDs may display the wrong file information after recording, depending on the situation.  
- If AV-HDD is recording, the file is automatically played which is currently being recorded,  
when it is selected from the Device List. (PVR function - Refer to What is Time-Shift Mode? on page 89)  
- For the “Go to recording position” button operation, the recording and playing time are displayed and the  
difference between them must be longer than 30 seconds.  
3) When connected to D-VHS  
- Some devices support an automatic connect function (I-mode). These devices may cause a malfunction  
when multiple devices are connected.  
- Some D-VHS devices may not record properly when multiple devices are connected and the mode is I-mode.  
- When selecting a D-VHS being used for a recording from the device list, you can only switch to D-VHS screen  
mode after the recording is stopped.  
4) When connected to a camcorder  
- Depending on if the camcorder is in Tape or Camera Mode, the control panel changes.  
If the camcorder turns off the power (power saving mode), the camcorder may disappear from the Device List.  
5) AV-HDD, D-VHS and camcorders automatically stop when you select another device.  
6) Some devices may be displayed in the Device List as ‘UNKNOWN’.  
This may happen when the device does not contain the proper information or it cannot be read.  
7) Some devices may not be recognized and may be disconnected from the 1394 connection when they are turned off.  
8) Through D-Net, you can connect another IEEE1394 compatible TV. If the TV is connected, the TV is listed in the  
D-Net Devices. At this point, the screen that appears when the TV is selected is determined by the specifications  
of the connected TV. That is, the screen of the connected TV or another connected IEEE1394 device may be displayed.  
*
What is Digital TS ? : DTV packages digital data (video, audio and data) into 188 byte units using the MPEG-2  
algorithm and transmits the data unit. It is called Digital Transport Stream or Digital TS.  
When a SAMSUNG DTV which supports D-Net is connected to each other, it only transmits Radio Frequency (RF)  
of the selected DTV.  
9) When connecting more than one STB, some STBs may not be displayed in the Device List due to STB specifications  
or defects when multiple devices are connected.  
Even if the device is displayed in the Device List, the connection may fail.  
STB problems may also stop the video stream while recording, or the recording may fail.  
In this case, you have to discover which device is defective by removing them one by one.  
English-91  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
10) When multiple devices are connected, some devices may appear and then disappear periodically in the Device List.  
Because some devices malfunction when multiple devices are connected.  
If this occurs, you have to discover and remove the defective device from the connection by removing the  
devices one by one.  
11) When multiple devices are connected, the response time may be relatively long when selecting a device.  
This may happen when there is a device that malfunctions and degrades the 1394 connection speed.  
At this time, some of the functions of AV-HDD or D-VHS may not work, and the stream connection may fail.  
If this occurs, you have to discover and remove the defective device from the connection by removing the  
devices one by one.  
12) When AV-HDD or D-VHS is being played, and you press the Pause button, some products may show the  
“ Weak or no signals” message on the TV screen instead of a still picture as there is no video stream  
from the product.  
13) If the number of connected IEEE 1394 devices exceeds 10, it may cause abnormal operation.  
-Yes and Play may not operate smoothly, if you play after recording.  
-Yes and the Play, Record and Copy functions do not work properly.  
-Disconnect the malfunctioning device and then try again.  
14) Copy Protection  
-You can record a Copy-free, or Copy-one-generation screen.  
- Although you cannot record a No-more-copies, or Copy-never screen, you can view it through another device.  
- If you change the channel to a ‘Copy-never’ channel while recording a ‘Copy-free’ channel, the recording is  
automatically stopped in some devices. Even if the program was recorded, you will not be able to view the  
recorded ‘Copy-never’ channel. At this time, therefore, the user has to manually stop the recording.

Appendix  
Replacing the Lamp  
•
•
•
Why do I need to replace the lamp?  
The lamp used in a DLP TV has a limited lifespan. For the best screen quality it needs to be  
replaced periodically. After replacing the lamp, the screen quality will be bright and clear as new.  
When do I need to replace it?  
It should be replaced when the screen becomes darker, less clear or when all three LEDs on the front  
(Stand by/temp, Timer, and Lamp) are flashing.  
Check before lamp replacement  
1. The lamp must be the same code number and type.  
2. The lamp type is indicated on the back of the TV. It is also indicated on the lamp case.  
3. After checking the code number for the lamp, give the code number to the store where you  
purchased the TV or to a Samsung Service center.  
•
Caution  
1. Replace with the correct code numbered lamp to avoid damage to the TV.  
2. Turn the power off and wait for 30 minutes before replacing the lamp as it will be hot.  
3. Do not touch the glass part of the lamp with your bare hands and do not insert any foreign object  
inside the cover as it may cause poor screen quality, electric shock or fire.  
4. Do not place the old lamp near flammable objects or within the reach of children.  
5. Be sure to connect this TV directly to an AC wall outlet. If the TV's AC plug is connected to a cable  
box or other source, it will not allow for proper cool down time.

Digital broadcasting screen  
problem.  
The visual qualities of digital channels may vary depending on the original production method  
(analog or digital).  
The visual qualities of digital  
channels vary.  
→
If the original production method is digital: High visual quality program.  
→
If the original production method is analog: The digital program displayed on the screen is originally an  
analog program which has been converted. The visual quality is of an SD grade.  
Although the TV caption shows  
HD, the visual quality is not  
satisfactory.  
The HD caption that appears when switching channels or when pressing the Information button on the  
remote control means the selected channel is simply a digital channel. If the broadcasting station converts  
an analog signal into digital and transmits the signal, the visual quality may not be perfect.  
The display panel used for the DLP TV is composed of many tiny pixels.  
These pixels may occasionally appear on the screen.
