ANAMORPHIC mode

The Anamorphic aspect ratio expands the image in the horizontal direction. The image is compressed vertically, but with anamorphic software the image will appear properly proportioned. This is best suited for use with 16:9 DVD’s and HDTV.

STANDARD 4:3 mode

The image is displayed at a standard 4:3 aspect ratio. The input signal will be scaled to fit in the center of the 16:9 screen.

LETTERBOX mode

The image in the Letterbox mode will be zoomed in, and the top and bottom portion ‘blanked off.’ This ratio is best suited for LaserDisc movies or non-anamorphic DVD’s.

VIRTUALWIDE mode

The VirtualWide mode is an aspect ratio is designed to fill the 16:9 screen with a 4:3 image. The center of the picture is not stretched, and it gradually stretches on the sides reaching the most extreme stretch at the far edges of the picture (non-linear scaling). In addition, we apply a very slight vertical stretch uniformly (no graduation) which results in a very small amount of cropping of the top and bottom of the image area. Thus a 4:3 image is transformed into a 16:9 image with minimal distortion.
