Helpful Hints
• Most DVDs only play in the
format in which they were
recorded. For example, if the
DVD case says the DVD is
recorded in Letterbox or
Widescreen format, you may
play the DVD only with the
black bars showing at the top
and bottom of the picture.
Even if you set the DVD
Player's TV Shape to 4:3 pan-
scan, the picture will still show
in the widened format, with
bars at the top and bottom of
the screen.
• The format you select must be
available on the Disc. If it is
not, the settings for TV Shape
will not affect the picture dur-
ing playback.
• Some widescreen TVs may
show only part of the DVD
Player's menu. Adjust the
screen mode on your TV. See
your TV owner's manual for
details.
