Aspect Ratio: Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height. TV screens are usually 1.33:1, also known as 4:3. HDTV and most DVDs are 1.78:1, or 16:9. You can choose Native, 4:3, 16:9, Letterbox, or Natural Wide. The default is 16:9. The goal is to show the most detail on the screen while preserving the ratio of width to height. The native resolution of the projec- tor is 1280x720. Use Native, 4:3 or Natural Wide for 4:3 input sources; use Native, 16:9 or Letterbox for 16:9 input. Pressing the Resize button on the remote cycles through these options.

Native: this mode bypasses the internal scaler, displaying the image with no

resizing. Since the native resolution is 1280x720 and 4x3 video images are

 

approximately 640x480, 4x3 images will always be smaller than the display

 

and will be centered in the display. Computer images 1024x768 or smaller

 

will also be centered in the display. If a 16x9 video source or a 1280x1024 or

 

larger computer source is viewed, it will display up to 1280 pixels and 720

 

lines from the center of the input. 16:9: the default is 16:9, which preserves

 

the 16:9 aspect ratio and is designed to be used with content that is

 

Enhanced for Widescreen TVs. 4:3: resizes the image from its original ver-

 

sion to fit a standard 4:3 aspect ratio screen. If you have a 4:3 source on a

 

16:9 screen, the image is placed in a 16:9 space, so black bars appear at the

 

sides of the image. Letterbox: preserves the 16:9 aspect ratio. If you have a
