Aspect Ratio Selections
The ASPECT button changes the aspect ratio (picture display shape) in response to
the source signal and monitor format. You can also change the aspect ratio for your
personal viewing preference. Each time the ASPECT button is pressed, the HDTV
Digital Receiver will cycle to the next available aspect ratio choice.
Full Aspect
16:9 or 4:3 picture will be displayed in the center of the viewing screen at full screen
width and height.
Zoom Aspect (4:3 Monitor receiving 16:9 source signal)
The picture will be expanded uniformly (width and height) to fill the viewing screen.
The picture will be cropped, either horizontally or vertically to fit the viewing screen.
The cropped portion of the original picture will be lost from view.
Note:
Letterbox Aspect (4:3 Monitor)
Video formats with aspect ratios greater than 16:9 will be displayed at the proper
width, so no video information is lost. Black or gray bars will appear above and below
the picture.
Sidebar Aspect (16:9 Monitor)
4:3 pictures will be viewed on a wide aspect TV screen with vertical bars on both sides
of the picture.
