TV Image
The TV Image menu adjusts the way a movie appears on your TV. Standard TVs are 4 x 3 format. Depending on the type of television you have, you may want to adjust the screen setting (also called, the aspect ratio).
1.From the DVD Player’s main menu (player ON, no disc playing), press the down arrow button until Setup is highlighted. Press OK. The Setup selections appear.
2.Press the down arrow button to highlight TV Image. Press OK. The TV Image options appear.
•4 x 3 Letterbox: Choose this setting if you would prefer to see movies in their original aspect ratio. You will see the entire frame of the movie, but it will occupy a smaller portion of the screen. This setting may result in the movie appearing with black bars at the top and bottom of the screen.
•4 x 3 Standard: Choose this setting if you want the movie to fill the entire screen of your TV. You won’t see part of the picture (particularly the right and left edges).
Some discs produced in a widescreen format can’t be cropped in this fashion, which means the black bars would appear at the top and the bottom of the screen.
•16 x 9 Widescreen: Choose this setting if your DVD Player is connected to a widescreen TV.
If you choose this setting and you don’t have a widescreen TV, the images on the screen may appear distorted due to vertical compression.
Note:
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.
The Display menu contains setting for the TV screen and the front panel display.
To change the TV Image, highlight TV Image and press OK on the remote. Use the up and down arrow buttons to highlight a setting and press OK.
