Page 36: Selecting The Aspect Ratio
Selecting the aspect ratio The 'aspect ratio' is the ratio of the image width to the image height. For W703D, the default aspect ratio is 16:9. Most analog TV and computers are in 4:3 ratio, and digital TV and DVDs are usually in 16:9 ratio. With the advent of digital signal processing, digital display devices like this projector can dynamically stretch and scale the image output to a different aspect than that of the image input signal. - Page 37 4:3: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the center of the screen with a 4:3 aspect 4:3 picture ratio. This is most suitable for 4:3 images like computer monitors, standard definition TV and 4:3 images aspect DVD movies, as it displays them without aspect alteration.
