The available zoom levels depend on the "TV Aspect Ratio" setting in the Setup Menu and the aspect
ratio of the DVD or Blu-ray Disc. The following zoom levels may be useful for some special applications:
1) Playing 16:9 BD or DVD when "TV Aspect Ratio" is set to "16:9 Wide" or "16:9 Wide/Auto"
Stretch – The image is vertically stretched by 1.33 times. For movies with 2.35:1 aspect ratio,
this zoom level cuts off the black borders at the top and bottom of the image. Users of projector
with anamorphic lens may find this mode helpful.
Original 2.35:1
Widescreen Movie
Full Screen – The image is stretched by 1.33 times for both vertical and horizontal directions.
For movies with 2.35:1 aspect ratio, this zoom level cuts off the black borders at the top and
bottom of the image while maintaining the correct aspect ratio. The left and right sides of the
image are slightly cropped.

2) Playing 4:3 BD or DVD when "TV Aspect Ratio" is set to "16:9 Wide"
1:1 - The image fills up the entire 16:9 screen but is horizontally stretched. Figures may look
shorter and wider than they should be.
Compress – The player maintains the correct 4:3 aspect ratio and adds borders to the left and
right sides of the image. The brightness level of the borders can be set by the "Border Level"
setting in the "Picture Adjustment" section of the Setup Menu.
Full Screen – This zoom level maintains the correct aspect ratio but crops the top and bottom
slightly in order to fit the 4:3 image to the 16:9 screen.
