WHY ARE THE BLACK BARS STILL THERE SOMETIMES?

There are three possible reasons for black bars to appear on the top and bottom of the display:

1)You are watching a widescreen movie with an aspect ratio greater than 1.85:1. (For more options on dealing with this, see below). Check the disc jewel box to determine the DVDs aspect ratio - if you see 2.3:1, 2.33:1, or 2.35:1, this applies.

2)The internal DVD player has been set for a 4:3 display instead of a 16:9, wide display. See DVD Setup on Page 1O or 13 to correct this.

3)The “widescreen” DVD movie you are viewing is not “anamorphic” or “enhanced for widescreen televisions.” These fi lms, often older DVD conversions, are not recommended for viewing on widescreen displays. You can usually determine if your DVD was produced for op- timum compatibility with widescreen televisions by looking for the word “anamorphic” or the phrase “enhanced for widescreen televisions” on the box.

WHAT CAN I DO?

Rosen recommends that for best results you use DVDs that say “ana- morphic” or “enhanced for widescreen televisions” on the box. How- ever, this system can get rid of black bars with just about any DVD, by following the steps on the next page.

Note: To watch “fullscreen” DVDs or broadcast television (using an optional TV tuner), you can use the DISPLAY button to select “STANDARD.” This will properly size the image, instead of stretching the image across the wide screen. In “STANDARD” mode, you will see black bars on the sides of the image.

Eliminating Black Bars when viewing a DVD:

1)Make sure that the internal DVD player is set to “Wide Screen” (see DVD Setup, page 10 or 13).

2)Use the DISPLAY button to select “Wide Screen” or “Wide Screen Zoom”.

To view widescreen DVDs, use “Wide Screen.”

To zoom the picture, use the “Wide Screen Zoom” mode.

Note: This feature will slightly “crop” the edges of the image. For best results when zooming in on DVD images, use the Disc Zoom feature below - not the “Wide Screen Zoom” Display Mode.

If this solution still is not satisfactory, go to step 3.

3)Use the Disc Zoom feature to completely fill the screen. Again, the edges will be “cropped,” but the screen will be fi lled.

Press the DISC ZOOM button during playback to select among the available options. You can then use the arrow buttons to shift the mag- nifi ed image left and right.

++

Note: Best results are obtained by connecting only widescreen displays to the system. The DVD player can provide either widescreen video or standard, non-widescreen video - it cannot provide widescreen video for one screen and standard video for other screens. Your Rosen authorized dealer offers a selection of high-quality widescreen automotive displays.
