Determine the Display Aspect Ratio

Standard Definition, or 4:3 TV
The TV Aspect Ratio is the proportional ratio of a TV screen's width and height. Older television sets
generally have a 4:3 aspect ratio – the width is 4/3 (or 1.33) times the height. Newer wide screen television
sets have a 16:9 aspect ratio – the width is 16/9 (or 1.78) times the height. Although 4:3 TVs are very rare
nowadays, program content originally formatted with a 4:3 aspect ratio is still very common. The Aspect Ratio
setting decides how this type of 4:3 program content is displayed on a 16:9 TV screen.
The Aspect Ratio selections are 16:9 Wide and 16:9 Wide/Auto. Depending on your selection and the video
format recorded on the discs, image appearance on the TV screen can be one of the following:
