Screen Size Selection

This unit incorporates screen modes of various height and width ratios. For optimal viewing, we recommend that you select the screen mode that best matches the video source that you are viewing. Although these modes are designed for full display of a picture on a wide screen, it is our hope that you make use of them with a full understanding of the manufacturer’s intentions.

Changing the screen size

The size of the picture or the picture’s range projected on the screen can be changed between 4 screen sizes described in the table on this page.

Press SCREEN SIZE to select the size.

The screen size changes each time SCREEN SIZE is pressed as follows.

Moving the screen position upward or downward

When a vista size movie etc., is viewed at the ZOOM setting, the image may not be centered on the screen, and may extend past the edge of the screen.
