If your picture is not quite as good as you expect, try going into Menu -> System Setup -> Display Settings and change any of the following options, Brightness - Contrast - Saturation, once you have set them exit and your alterations will be stored. The setting up of the receiver is simple enough, one thing you should beware of is the display settings, in the Menu select -> System Setup -> TV System -> Video Out here you get two options RGB & YUV, if you select RGB then you have only two resolution options 480i & 576i, there is also an Auto option, if you wish to access the full resolution options the set the YUV then you get them all the 50 and 60 options shown refers to the refresh rate of your television, so if your television refresh rate is 50Mhz then set the output to 50, for example you will the get a crystal clear picture.
