THE MENU SYSTEM

THE SCREEN MENU

The SCREEN menu allows you to set the monitor to automatically select the correct mode for viewing a particular movie and to change the positions of on-screen menus.

SELECTING A VIEWING SIZE

When viewing with a component other than your HD receiver, you can set the screen mode to one of four screen sizes to suit the type of input you are watching. Select the screen mode with the CINEMA button on the remote control. The screen sizes are as follows:

FILL expands in both vertical and horizontal directions while the correct proportions are maintained. The picture is not distorted, just closer.

NORMAL displays a picture with a 4:3 aspect ratio (standard video). Because this mode fills the screen vertically, but not horizontally, black bars will appear on the right and left sides of the picture.

Note: If viewing with a 4/3 aspect ratio for long periods of time, set side gray level at 3 or 4.

FULL expands the picture in the horizontal direction only. This option corrects the aspect ratio of images that have been compressed or “squeezed.”

STADIUM expands in both the horizontal and vertical directions, but varies the amount of stretch depending on the picture – the center of the picture is almost normal while the edges are considerably expanded. This mode is intended for watching video with a 4:3 aspect ratio on a wide screen.

Note: In stadium mode, only the V-position and H-position are displayed. You can’t change the height and width.

To change the viewing size:

1.Press the CINEMA button on the remote control.

2.The current viewing size will be displayed. Press the CINEMA button again to switch to the next size. The size switches as follows:

Fill

Normal

Full
