3.Letter Box (LB): Scales a picture to fit the projector’s native resolution in its horizontal width and resize the picture’s height to the 3/4 of the projection width. This may produce a picture greater in height than can be displayed, so part of the picture is lost (not displayed) along the top and bottom edges of the projection. This is suitable for the display of movies which are presented in letter box format (with black bars on the top and bottom).

4.Wide: Stretches the picture horizontally in a non-linear manner, that is, the edges of the picture are stretched more than the center of the picture to prevent distortion of the central part of the picture. This is suitable for occasions where you want to stretch the width of a 4:3 aspect picture to the width of a 16:9 aspect screen. It does not alter the height. Some widescreen movies have been produced with their width squashed down to the width of a 4:3 aspect, and are best viewed when restretched back to their original width using this setting.

5.Real: This setting displays the image in a one-to-one pixel mapping without alteration or resize in the center of the projection. This is most suitable for use with PC source inputs.

• The black portions are inactive areas and the white portions are active areas.

OSD menus can be displayed on those unused black areas.
