Digital TV
Between now and the end of 2012 the UK will be turning off all old “analogue” TV transmitters and switching your TV signal to “digital”. Digital TV offers new ways to enjoy your TV. You will have a greater choice of TV channels as well as access to additional features and services which will enhance your TV-watching experience.
When the digital switch happens in your area, your older analogue TVs will no longer be able to pick up a signal. To keep your normal TV service running, you will need to convert your TVs to digital before your area’s switchover date.
Switching your home to digital is easy. All you need to do is purchase digital tuner and connect it to your analogue TV or alternatively, you can replace it with a new digital TV. All Toshiba LCD TVs carry the Digital Tick and come with Freeview built-in, making them the ideal option for preparing your home for the digital switch.

Active Vision
Active Vision LCD is our high performance picture processing system. Active Vision LCD has been designed to produce high quality, high definition images by enhancing core elements of a television picture including detail, colour, movement and contrast.
Detail: Images are now spread over a larger number of smaller pixels compared to a conventional LCD TV.
Colour: Active Vision reproduces colours with more tones than conventional LCD televisions, producing images with reduced banding for a smoother, more realistic colour progression.
Movement: Picture sharpness in fast moving scenes is increased, with a reduction in the jagged edges often seen on lines and fine detail.
Contrast: The continuous monitoring and automatic adjustment of contrast, enhances detail and increases the ability of the television to represent subtle shade changes.
Dynamic Contrast
Dynamic Contrast decreases the TV’s backlight brightness in dark scenes and increases brightness in highly-lit scenes. Getting the best picture detail requires the right balance between brightness and contrast, too much or too little of either is a problem.
Toshiba’s Dynamic Contrast technology automatically adjusts the LCD panel backlight, depending on the level of brightness required by the original signal. Dimming the backlight enables the system to reproduce fine detail and render dark scenes more realistically, with blacks having much greater depth. Increasing backlight brightness for scenes requiring more colour, produces more vibrant images with a greater intensity.

HDMI
Put simply, HDMI is the new industry standard for the connection of home entertainment equipment.
High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) connections between TV, DVD and other digital equipment are gradually replacing older SCART connections and make it possible to deliver high definition pictures and sound to your HD Ready TV. The REGZA AV Series has 3 HDMI connections, making it possible to connect 3 HD sources (satellite TV, DVD, Laptops, games consoles etc) to your TV at any one time.
Good quality TV
I have had this TV for a few weeks now and it was easy to set up, auto tuning on the freeview was very good and picked up lots of channels. A bit fiddly swapping terrestrial channels around but very similar to other TVs, I just don't have to do this very often. There is a little 'ghosting' on some pictures, not sure what is common to them all but the general picture and sound quality is excellent. I would recommend this TV.
Good picture, poor sound
We are delighted with most aspects of our 26" TV but have to say we are disappointed by the sound quality.
Toshiba 26AV713B
Well it's pretty good and does what it says on the tin. I chose this for my aunt who still has a VHS video because this unit has 2x scart. - allowing her to connect a digital recorder she has with a scart o/p, and the VHS also with a scart. I thought it would work like scart inputs I have used b4 where as soon as you turn on the kit with the scart o/p the TV switches to that o/p. Unfortunately this doesn't happen and so she has to switch on the video or 'box' and then use the input selector on the TV to navigate to the device in use. She is 87 and can do this but I had wanted it to be simpler for her, - so disappointed in this respect.
