I've been through the on-screen menus till the cows come home but when I set 'PICTURE' Mode to 'Movie', after some minutes that part of the menu reverts to the default 'Dynamic' Mode. In the downloaded manual there's something about a 'Start Plug & Play' basic settings dialog being displayed on start-up, with an option to click OK etc. So far I've not been able to see or locate this dialog. Got me beat. Any ideas anyone? Much appreciated!	braindead (1685)

1364457	2014-01-07 08:21:00	See if you have a "Factory Reset" function or some other "return to go" type of function. My Sanyo channel selections would not stick for more than a few days so I tried the F.R. and so far so good, everything is staying as set. Might work for you........ Cheers Billy 8-{)	Billy T (70)

IOW, changed settings revert to their defaults on power down. I prefer the more cinematic look of 'Movie' compared to the oversaturated 'Dynamic' setting.	braindead (1685)
