Digital Projection Ltd. M-Vision WUXGA Series
Aspect ratios explained
The appearance of a projected image on the screen depends on a combination of the following:
•
The display resolution is WUXGA with a 1920 x 1200 resolution, corresponding to an aspect ratio of 16:10.
•
The aspect ratio of the input signal: usually 4:3, 16:9 or 16:10.
•
The value of the Aspect Ratio setting of the projector:
•
16:9, 4:3, 16:10 and 5:4 stretch the image to the selected aspect ratio. 16:9 leaves black bars at the top and bottom of the
screen (letterboxing effect); 4:3 and 5:4 leave black bars at the sides of the screen (pillarboxing).
•
TheaterScope is a special setting used in combination with an anamorphic lens, an optional accessory. It removes
letterboxing from a 2.35:1 source packed into a 16:9 frame.
•
Source shows the image with its original aspect ratio, if this does not match the native aspect ratio of the DMD either fit
the full width or height of the display.
