Tips for High-Definition Users.

Tips for Letterbox Content Users.

Solution

Your HDTV is an ideal platform for viewing High Definition Content.

Best image quality will be achieved by HDMI. The next best is Component, followed by Composite.

Due to variances in broadcast practices, it is possible some image distortions can occur.

Some Letterboxed (or “Widescreen”) versions of DVD movies are formatted for standard 4:3 Televisions. Your HDTV has the ability to expand this content so the entire screen is filled at the expense of image accuracy. To use this function, press ZOOM on the remote control to cycle among the options.
