TV Display Format Definitions

Standard: This is the full-screen format used by HDTV signals. Use this format to display anamorphic DVDs with a 1.78:1 or 1.85:1 aspect ratio. Anamorphic DVDs with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio are displayed correctly but with top and bottom black bars. Narrow (4:3) images are stretched evenly from side to side. Available for all signals.

Expand: Enlarges the picture to fill the screen by cropping the top and bottom; useful for reducing the letter box top and bottom bars of non-anamorphic DVD images.

Zoom: Enlarges the picture to fill the screen by cropping the sides, top, and bottom to eliminate black bars. 480i/480p and SD 4:3 signals: Eliminates top and bottom bars on anamor- phic DVDs with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio. 720p, 1080i, SD 16:9, and HD signals: Eliminates bars added to 4:3 images.

Stretch: Stretches a narrow 4:3 image across the screen to display the entire image with less distortion than the Standard format.

Stretch Plus: Similar to Stretch, but minimizes distortion on the sides by expanding the picture to crop off portions of the top and bottom. You can adjust the vertical position of the picture. Press VIDEO repeatedly to show the Vert Adjustment

option, then press ENTER. Use

to move the picture.

Narrow: Displays narrow 4:3 images in their original shape. Adds black side bars to fill the screen.

Wide Expand: Enlarges the picture, cropping the image on both sides. Removes or reduces black side bars added to narrow images converted to 16:9 signals for digital broadcast.

Note: All high-definition channels send widescreen (16:9) signals, but not all such programming was created for this format. The broadcaster may stretch the image or add side bars to fill the widescreen area.
