Changing The Screen Aspect Ratio - Vizio D24h-G9 User Manual

CHANGING THE SCREEN ASPECT RATIO

The TV can display images in four different modes: Normal, Panoramic,
Wide, and Zoom. Each mode displays the picture differently.
Some programs have black bars on the top or sides of the picture so
that the picture keeps its original shape. Examples include wide-screen
movies and older television programs.
To change the screen aspect ratio:
1. Press the Wide button on the remote.
2. Use the Arrow buttons to highlight the aspect ratio you wish to
view and press OK.
• Normal preserves the content's original aspect ratio and size.
• Stretch expands a widescreen image to fill the screen from
top to bottom and stretches it half as much from right to left.
Figures appear tall and thin.
• Wide stretches a 4:3 aspect ratio picture to the edges of the
screen. Since the picture is being stretched, the display image
may appear distorted—figures appear short and fat. If the
program is already formatted for widescreen viewing (1.85:1
or 2.35:1), then black bars will appear on the top and bottom
of the display image.
• Zoom expands images evenly in all directions (33% taller and
33% wider) with black bars to fit the screen. A 720p image will
fill a 1080p screen.
Tip: The aspect ratio cannot be changed for Ultra HD
content or HDR content.
