How to test auto contrast with BeoVision 4-65

3 replies

Hi. I have BV4-65 (type 8959) connected to BS3 running 3.1 software. Can you please tell me how I can test the auto-contrast feature to make sure it's working? Covering the IR puck doesn't seem to make any visual difference. I've seen a YouTube demo on BV9 when this action changes contrast values in the Panasonic "Picture" menu, but the "Picture" menu option is missing when I push "Menu" on my Panasonic remote. Thank you!

I've posted once a video from a BV5 where you could see the interaction between the beosystem and pana panel.

You need to press the "picture" button the pana remote.

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.

Thanks Beobuddy. This could be the video I've seen. However, my Pana remote doesn't have a "Picture" button (see this image). Is there a different way to access this menu or do I need a different Panasonic remote?
