playback or eject the disc before trying to change these setup items. If you still cannot
access the setup item, please check for configuration conflicts and consistency.

settings will be grayed-out. Setting the "Down-mix" mode to "5.1CH" will enable the center
and rear speaker size settings.

Determine Your Display Type

Widescreen, or 16:9 TV
For best performance, your OPPO DVD player must be correctly configured for playback even before the first
disc is inserted. This is done under General Setup Page > TV Display in the Setup Menu.
If you have a widescreen (16:9) display as pictured on the left, select one of these options:
•
16:9 Wide – 16:9 (widescreen) sources will be displayed in their native aspect ratio, and 4:3
sources will be stretched.
•
16:9 Wide/Auto – 16:9 (widescreen) as well as 4:3 sources will be displayed in their native
aspect ratio. Please note that in this mode 4:3 sources will be displayed with black borders on
both sides to maintain the correct 4:3 aspect ratio.
NOTE
If you are using a plasma or widescreen CRT display you will want to avoid leaving black
bars on the screen for any length of time as you may encounter temporary burn-in where the
display retains memory of the "used" part of screen and the unused (black bar) portions are
clearly defined on the screen during subsequent viewing sessions. The "16:9 Wide" mode is
the best choice for these types of displays.
If you have a 4:3 or standard definition screen as pictured on the right, select one of these options:
•
4:3 Pan/Scan – 4:3 TV Pan and Scan. Choose when the display is 4:3. Both sides of a
widescreen image are clipped (you lose about 30% of the picture).
•
4:3 Letterbox – 4:3 TV Letterbox. Choose when the display is 4:3. Widescreen image is
displayed in "letterbox" format with black borders on top and bottom (preferred).
