Setting options

[16:9 NORMAL] (Wide television screen): select when you connect the player to a wide-screen (16:9) TV whose aspect ratio is fixed to 16:9 (the player automatically adjusts the screen width of the output signal correctly when playing back a 4:3 source).

If you play a 4:3 DVD VIDEO source using the [16:9 NORMAL] mode, the picture character changes slightly due to the process for converting the picture width.

[16:9 AUTO] (Wide television screen): select when you connect the player to a wide-screen (16:9) TV.

[4:3 LB] (Letter Box conversion): select when you connect the

player to a normal (4:3) TV.

When playing back a DVD VIDEO disc recorded in wide picture format, the picture is shown with black bars at the top and bottom.

[4:3 PS] (Pan Scan conversion): select when you connect the player to a normal (4:3) TV.

When playing back a DVD VIDEO disc recorded in wide picture format, the picture is zoomed to fill the screen vertically, and the left and right sides of the image are chopped off.

Note, however, that the picture will be shown in the 4:3 LB mode even if you select the 4:3 PS mode depending on the disc.

To change the setting, see “How to set preferences” on page 33.
