TV Signals and Display Formats

This is a 16:9 widescreen TV suitable for images available from HDTV and many DVDs. You can view older-style, squar- ish images (4:3 aspect ratio) using one of the display formats described on this page. Press the MORE key and then the

0key (FORMAT) to cycle through available display formats. The TV remembers the format you last used for each input.

DVD Image Definitions

Image information may be stated on the DVD case. Some DVDs support both formats described below.

Anamorphic (or Enhanced for WideScreen TV). Indicates DVDs recorded to show widescreen images properly on 16:9 TV sets using the TV’s Standard format mode (recommended).

Non-Anamorphic (or 4:3, 1.33:1, Letter Box, or Full Screen). Indicates DVDs recorded for viewing on squarish TV screens. They may be full screen (4:3 or 1.33:1) which crops movies to fit the narrow TV, or letter box, which adds black top and bottom bars.

Signal Definitions

480i: Older type of interlaced signals from the ANT input, composite VIDEO, component Y Pb Pr, or HDMI jacks.

480p: Progressive-scan DVD signals on component Y Pb Pr or HDMI jacks.

720p and 1080i: High-definition signals received through component Y Pb Pr or HDMI jacks. These signals are always 16:9 (widescreen).

Stretch: Stretches squarish 4:3 images across the screen to display the entire image with less distortion than Stan- dard.

Stretch Plus: Similar to Stretch, but minimizes distor- tion on the sides by expanding the picture to crop off

portions of the top and bottom. Use to adjust the vertical position of the picture.

Narrow: Displays narrow 4:3 images in their original shape. Adds black side bars to fill the screen.

Wide Expand: Enlarges the picture, cropping the image on both sides. Removes or reduces black side bars added to narrow images converted to 16:9 signals for digital broadcast.

Note: All high-definition channels send widescreen (16:9) signals, but not all programming was created for the widescreen format. The broadcaster may stretch the image or add side bars to fill the widescreen area.

Full Native: Displays all pixels in the original image
