TELEVISION OPERATION ___________________

Changing the picture format

The television automatically switches to the 16:9 format, if this format is recognised by the Euro-AV socket.

1Select the picture format with »E«. The selected picture format, for example »16:9«, appears on the screen.

– You can choose between the following picture formats:

»Auto« format

The picture format is automatically switched to »16:9« with 16:9 channels.

For programmes in 4:3 format, the picture automatically fills the screen.

»4:3« format

For 4:3 programmes, select picture format »4:3«.

»16:9« and »14:9« formats

During programmes in 4:3 format, the picture is stretched horizon- tally if »16:9« or »14:9« is selected.

The picture geometry is stretched horizontally.

With actual 16:9 signal sources (from a SET-TOP box on the Euro-AV socket) the picture fills the screen completely and with the correct geometry.

»Letterbox« format

Letterbox setting is especially suitable for programmes in 16:9 format.

The black borders which are usually at the top and bottom of the screen are eliminated, 4:3 pictures fill the screen.

The transmitted pictures are enlarged, but are slightly cropped at the top and bottom. The picture geometry remains unchanged.

»Subtitle 1« and »Subtitle 2« format

If you cannot read the subtitles which appear on the bottom of the screen (especially during programmes with 4:3 format and if the »Letterbox« format is selected), then select »Subtitle 1«.

If you are still unable to read the subtitles, select »Subtitle 2«.
