HDTV format.

User's Guide
1
Consult your HDTV user's guide for the HD format resolution that the TV supports (1080i
or 720p).
2
Press MENU, select System Setup, and then HDTV Setup.
3
Select the HD format settings (Analog Type and TV Type) that matches the format your TV
supports.
4
While in this menu, select the Aspect Ratio option that matches your TV:
• 16x9 is the setting for wide screen HDTV display.
• 4x3 #1 is the setting to use on a 4x3 TV which uses vertical compression. When
viewing with a 16x9 program, a compatible TV automatically makes the picture
letterbox format (black bars top and bottom), to preserve the correct horizontal and
vertical proportions.
• 4x3 #2 is the setting to use on a 4x3 TV which does NOT have internal vertical
compression. When viewing a 16x9 program, such a TV will not show black bars at
the top and bottom, and the picture will appear tall and skinny.
5
Select Done.

If required, set up the HDTV to display in the format you desire. Some HDTVs will
automatically adjust to the resolution setting of the receiver.
