Ever heard of Intellisense in a TV function

My hdtv Philips, has a function in the features department called
Intellisense and it only be used via remote control. I tried to use it
for the first time last night and there are no explanations on how to
use it and what to look for in the manual. It just shows the button.
Well, i pressed the button and the 3 primary colors appear one after
the other..red, blue and green. there are shown on each screen a top
and bottom and left and right spots of the same colors..but not
knowing if there is anything one must do with those 'spots'? There are
no buttons on the remote to move them, if they are to be moved..anyhow
i do not see if that can correct my seeing blue linings around some
figures or yellow. Beyond warranty, so no help there...repair
co...wants to charge just to look at it. I have no idea if this is a
symptom of a dying TV that is only 6 years old and had it repaired 3
years ago with a replaced module.

Its an automatic convergence function, and should be in that section of your
owners manual.
Google is your friend. Try Intellisense Phillips TV and check out the
links. Since you didnt provide a model # with your post, I just dug thru
the general links. The pdf files are also available on how to use the
feature if you cant find your owners manual.
BTW, since this is a rear projection crt based television, that blue halo
could be caused
by poor focus on the blue crt, poor convergence, OR just dust
accumulationing on the top of the upward facing
crts. I used to take the screen off and clean my old Pioneer RPTV once a
year, usually right before the fall shows and football started. It made a
difference in picture sharpness.
And you have had the TV for 6 years and you have never adjusted the
convergence? wow! No wonder your picture loks wacko.

HI, thanks...i do have the manual and it just says the name of
it ...nothing about how to use it. I did go to philips web site and
did not see anything about info in intellisense. I wish you
could send me that particular link...BTW, its a 55PP9401 TV Don't
forget i had a complete module replaice 3 years ago...and never was
informed that I should do this convergence bit, with the possible
exception of moving the TV set, which I had not.

Google it! I found the info in about 30 seconds.
The fact that you had a module replaced is irrelevant.
AND, if you have the owners manual, read it. All of it. Every page.

Why are you saying that i have not read the entire manual.?..I
have..and I will gladly send you a copy ( one page ) on what it has to
say about intellisense..absolutely nothing, just the location on the
remote... out of the entire manual. Now, if your so adamant that I
have not read the entire manual . why not out of pure courtesy give me
that link?

I googled Intellisense for your TV. It just says push the button, and
the TV will automatically adjust convergence and focus. I also saw
several people who had convergence issues, and they had to replace
modules and power supplies.

There is a reason that I never buy Phillips TV or electronics. If it
wasn't for Sonicare, I would never buy anything from them.

Well, thanks for that ...but apparently its not doing anything when i
push that button other than showing me the 3 primary colors
separately..Its getting worse and now i have to decide to put up with
it till it goes or try to get rid of it to someone who would pay
around 120 dollars and a 1 year warranty to replace the modules. I
already paid 3 years ago at a 325 clip and 6 month warranty..Know of
any company that would pick up this monster or do i have to buy one in
order for them to take it?
