NOTE: You can find aspect ratios on the back of most DVD covers. Also, Anamorphic DVDs are usually marked “Anamorphic” or “Enhanced for 16:9 TVs.”

Standard

Default format for DTV and Component Input displays a full-screen format. The Standard format displays Anamorphic DVDs that have the 1.78:1 or 1.85:1 aspect ratios. However, Anamorphic DVDs that have the 2.35:1 aspect ratio still display black bars at the top and bottom of the screen, while narrow (4:3) images are stretched evenly from side to side.

Expand (480i/480p)

Enlarges the picture, cropping some of the image at the top and bottom. The Expand format is useful to reduce the letterbox top and bottom bars of non-Anamorphic DVDs or to correct narrow

4:3 images that have been stretched in the Standard format.

Note: Expand is not available with 1080i/720p signal.

HD Expand (1080i/720p)

Enlarges the picture to fit the screen vertically, cropping some of the image on both sides. This format is useful to remove or reduce black side bars on HD broadcasts of 4:3 images with black bars (See page 55).

Note: HD Expand is only available with 1080i/ 720p signal.

Zoom

Enlarges the picture, cropping some of the image at each side, top and bottom. The Zoom format is useful to remove or reduce the black top and bottom bars on Anamorphic DVDs with 2.35:1 aspect ratio.

Note: Zoom is not available with 1080i/720p signal.

Stretch

Default format for ANT and Inputs 1-2. The Stretched format stretches narrow 4:3 images across the screen, however, there is less stretch in the center than the sides.

Note: Stretch is not available with 1080i/720p signal.

Stretch Plus

Similar to Stretch mode. To minimize distortions on the side, the picture is expanded to crop off portions of the top and bottom. Useful when no important information is shown at the top and/or bottom of the screen.

Note: Stretch Plus is not available with 1080i/ 720p signal.
