Formats (10.5)
The JVC LT-47X899 supports most modern display formats including 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 480p and 480i. TV's that don't support any of these formats are becoming less common, so no surprises here. There is also support for 3:2 pulldown and 24p modes, which allow you to get a more cinema-like effect for content that is produced to look like film. The JVC LT-47X899 also supports x.v.Color, which is used by some modern camcorders to produce a wider range of color.
Photo Playback (5.0)
Photos can be played back on the JVC LT-47X899 using the available USB port on the back of the TV. You can plug a single USB device like a camera, memory card reader or memory stick directly into this port, or you can plug a USB hub into it and plug multiple devices into that hub. Your options for viewing photos are simple, you can see a listing of photos organized in a grid pattern called Multi-Screen, or you can choose to view a slideshow.
In Multi-Screen mode you can select photos and open them to view them on the full display. The Back button is used to go back to the Multi-View interface. You can jump between pages of photos using the number pad. You can also rotate images by using the Vol+/Vol- buttons. When viewing a photo full screen you can zoom in using up/down on the Remote's D-Pad. When zoomed in you can pan an image using the number keys, 1 will move it up and to the left, for example. Hitting the number 5 will reset to default position.
For slideshows you have control over the transition used between photos, with options for Fade, Slide, Wipe, Zoom, Blind and Shuffle. You can also set the interval between photos up to a maximum of two minutes, or you can match the transition manually if you prefer. The photo playback options of the JVC LT-47X899 are fairly basic, we do like to see the ability to rotate and zoom into photos.
