Dynamic Range

DVD

This sets the screen size (4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio) according to the connected TV.

Dynamic Range setting allows you to “compress” the dynamic range of a DVD’s sound track, so that you can lower the volume without losing extremely soft signals. This is especially useful when you are watching a movie late at night.

4 x 3 Letterbox:

Choose this setting if you would

 

prefer to see movies in their

 

original aspect ratio. You will see

 

the entire frame of the movie,

 

but it will occupy a smaller

 

portion of the screen. This

 

setting may result in the movie

 

appearing with black bars at the

 

top and bottom of the screen.

4 x 3 Pan Scan:

Choose this setting if you want

 

the movie to fill the entire screen

 

of your TV. You won’t see part

 

of the picture (particularly the

 

right and left edge).

 

Some disc produced in a wide

 

screen format can’t be cropped in

 

this fashion, which means the

 

black bars would appear at the

 

top and bottom of the screen.

16 x 9 Widescreen:

Choose this setting if your DVD

 

Player is connected to a

 

widescreen TV.

Notes

•The displayable picture size is preset on each DVD-Video. Therefore, the playback picture of some DVD-Video may not conform to the picture size you select.

•When you play a DVD-Video recorded in the 4:3 picture size only, the playback picture always appears in the 4:3 picture size regardless of the TV shape setting.

•If you select “16:9 Widescreen” and you own a 4:3 TV set, the DVD playback picture will be horizontally distorted during playback. Images will appear to be horizontally compressed. Make sure the TV Shape

32 conforms to the actual TV in use.

Off: Full dynamic range is maintained.

On: Dynamic range is reduced.

Notes

•This function works only during playback of Dolby Digital recorded discs.

•The level of Dynamic Range Reduction may differ depending on the DVD.
