Changing the Picture Aspect Ratio

To change the screen aspect ratio:
Menu > Picture > Aspect Ratio
Use the Navigation buttons to highlight the aspect ratio you wish to view.
Your TV can display images in different modes:
• Normal (default) — No change to aspect ratio.
• Stretch * — When the 16:9 signal is a 4:3 image with black bars left and right,
stretches to fill the screen.
• Panoramic — Stretches a 4:3 image to fill 16:9 screen with an algorithm so the
*
center doesn't look stretched.
• Wide — Stretches a 4:3 aspect ratio to fill 16:9 screen. If a 16:9 image, adds
black bars to top and bottom.
Zoom — Expands image both horizontally and vertically by 14%.
•
Some programs have black bars on the top and bottom or sides of the screen so that
the picture keeps its original shape. Examples include widescreen movies and older
TV programs.
