4.2.2 Television aspect ratio

The digital receiver supports various video resolutions from
576 to 1080. To enjoy high definition pictures, set the HD Out-
put option to Component and select a resolution of 720 or more
in the Video Format option. In general, a resolution of 720 or
more is considered high definition. The higher the resolution
is, the better the quality is.
If you set this option to 576I, the digital receiver will present
even high definition programmes in resolution of 576. On the
contrary, if you set it to 1080I, the digital receiver will present
even standard definition programmes in resolution of 1080.
However, if your television set does not support high defini-
tion or a certain resolution, you cannot enjoy your high defini-
tion quality picture as desired. Therefore, it is recommended
to set it to Auto if you have a high definition television. With
that setting the digital receiver will present a programme as
it is without any resolution conversion. While watching tele-
vision you can change the resolution with the
ton. Whenever you press it, the video resolution is changed in
turn.
NOTE
If your television supports only standard definition, set the
HD Output option to Scart, then the pictures will be dis-
played in a resolution of 576I. In addition, note that you can
view only standard quality videos with the TV SCART out-
put. It ouputs even high definition pictures in CVBS or S-
Video format, and outputs standard definition pictures in
CVBS, RGB, or S-Video format.
If you have a wide-screen television, set the TV Aspect Ratio
option to 16:9.
