3.2.3 Video cassette recorder

You would have the digital receiver linked to your video cas- sette recorder or such an appliance from the VCR SCART. The digital receiver will operate differently depending on the set- ting of the VCR Scart Type option. If the option is set to Stan- dard, the digital receiver will pass the video from the video recorder to your television when the video recorder starts play- back. But if the option is set to External A/V, the digital re- ceiver will not pass the video even though the video recorder starts playback. To pass it, you have to press button.

3.2.4 Television aspect ratio

If you have a wide-screen television, set the TV Aspect Ratio option to 16:9.

You can enjoy well both wide-screen programs and normal- screen programs with your wide-screen television as the above figures show. The left figure shows a wide picture displayed in the wide screen, and the right figure shows a normal picture displayed in the wide screen.

If you have a normal-screen television, set the TV Aspect Ratio option to 4:3.
