8-30 User’s Manual
Using the Remote Controller, Front operation panel and QosmioPlayer
QosmioEngine
Users can select from three video quality modes depending on their
preferences for watching videos. A dedicated utility (TOSHIBA Picture
Enhancement Utility) running on Windows is developed to allow users to
select a mode and a sharpness level.
Modes
There are the following three modes.
■ Dynamic: Users can enjoy videos in a bright and exciting way.
■ Standard: Users can enjoy videos in their room in a relaxed way.
■ Theater: Users can enjoy videos as if they were in a theater in their
dimly-lit room.
Two sharpness levels are available: ON and OFF, with the Image
sharpness being emphasized if ON is selected.
Restrictions of the QosmioEngine
The current mode will be maintained, and should be restored the next time
the computer is switched on, and after the computer returns from Standby
Mode or Hibernation Mode.
QosmioEngine is available only for the LCD and has the following
restrictions.
■ QosmioEngine does not support LCD/CRT, CRT, TV, LCD/TV and
Multi-Monitor.
■ Depending the video being played, noise may be present.
■ The QosmioEngine is active when using the WinDVD.
■ The QosmioEngine is active when using the QosmioPlayer TV or the
QosmioPlayer DVD.
■ QosmioEngine is also compatible with WinDVD.
■ External display output (CRT/S-Video out) may not be supported.
■ The QosmioEngine allows the computer to clearly display video
images, while trading this off against the rendering of lower quality
static data, such as captions.
■ Noise contained in original video images may increase when playing
them with QosmioPlayer. This is because the QosmioEngine not only
displays video images in high quality but will also do the same for any
noise they may contain.
