YouÕll see the entire frame of the movie, but it will take up a smaller portion of the screen vertically. The movie might appear with black bars at the top and bottom of the screen.

4 x 3 Standard Ð Choose this setting if you want the movie to fill the entire screen of your TV. 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.
