How to label or name my TV inputs?

Your television has a feature called Input Labelling. This feature allows you to assign a label to a particular video input.   This feature, also allows you to select "SKIP" or "Not Used", if the input is not being used. When an input is labelled as "SKIP" or "Not Used", you cannot access it when selecting the  INPUT button.It will appear greyed out.  "Customize" option allows you to enter your own labels for the input (ex.“Computer”).   There are various methods to assign input labels depending on your particular VIERA model/Series.   Use the method that best resembles your On Screen Menu.
