16 x 9 Features
Various broadcasting stations now transmit movies and programs in true wide
screen format, especially some Satellite broadcasts. Built in to your TV is software
that detects these signals and automatically switches your TV to the correct for-
mat. However, some broadcasters do not transmit the automatic sensing signal,
and thus the TV will not recognise what format is transmitting.
The above problem may be overcome simply by pressing the 16:9 (key10) button
on your handset.
First identify the type of signal being transmitted. If it is a 16 x 9 wide screen
broadcast viewed on a 4 x 3 normal format, then objects or characters appear tall
and narrow (see example 1).
By pressing the 16 x 9 (key 10) button on your handset the screen is compressed
to a 16 x 9 ratio. This is the correct ratio to view true wide screen broadcasts
(see example 2).
If the 16:9 key is pressed once more the AUTO function is set. The TV will auto-
matically detect the broadcast and switch to 4:3 or 16:9 ratio. We recommend
AUTO is set for the majority of TV viewing.
