Aspect Ratio Controls

INTELLIWIDE mode

This aspect ratio is designed to fill the 16:9 screen with a 4:3 image. The center of the picture is not stretched, and it gradually stretches on the sides reaching the most extreme stretch at the far edges of the picture. (non-linear scaling)

In addition, we apply a very slight vertical stretch uniformly (no graduation) which results in a very small amount of cropping of the top and bottom of the image area.

Thus a 4:3 image is transformed into a 16:9 image with minimal distortion.
