4 x 3 Standard – Choose this setting if you want the movie to fill the entire screen of your TV/DVD. This might mean that parts of the picture (the left and right edges) wonÕt be seen.
Most discs produced in a widescreen format canÕt be cropped in this fashion. This means the black bars will appear at the top and the bottom of the screen.
4x3 Standard
16 x 9 Widescreen – Choose this setting if your TV/DVD is connected to a widescreen TV. If you choose this setting and you donÕt have a widescreen TV, the images on the screen may appear distorted due to vertical compression.
If you play a disc recorded in 4 x 3 format on a widescreen TV, the left and right side of the screen will appear black.
