Use this setting when watching a
widescreen DVD, widescreen video
tape or a 16:9 broadcast (when
available). Due to the range of
widescreen formats (16:9, 14:9,
20:9 etc.) black bars may be
visible on the top and bottom of the
screen.
Use this setting to view a true 4:3
broadcast.
This setting will enlarge a 4:3
image to fit the screen by stretching
the image horizontally and
vertically, holding better
proportions at the centre of the
image. Some distortion may occur.
When watching 'all sides panel
format' films/video tapes, this
setting will eliminate or reduce the
black bars at all sides of the screen
by zooming in and selecting the
image without distortion.
When subtitles are included on a
letterbox format broadcast, this
setting will raise the picture to
ensure that all the text is displayed.
Use this setting when watching a
14:9 broadcast.
