Picture Menu

TV Shape

With this setting you can select a picture format to match the aspect ratio of your TV.

4:3 Letter box (default): Choose

this option if you have a standard TV (4:3 aspect ratio). When you watch widescreen DVD-Video movies, the entire picture will be visible and there will be black

bars at the top and bottom of the screen, as shown. 4:3 Pan & Scan: Choose this

option if you have a standard TV (4:3 aspect ratio) and want to use the full height of the screen when watching widescreen DVD-Video movies. In order to

use the full height of the screen, the picture will be cropped on both sides, as shown. This option won’t work with discs that don’t support pan and scan.

16:9 Widescreen: Choose this option if you have a widescreen TV (16:9 aspect ratio). Depends on TV, the picture appears stretched when watching programs in 4:3 format.

16:9 Compressed: Choose

this option if you have a widescreen TV (16:9 aspect ratio) and the picture appears stretched when watching pro- grams in 4:3 format. Some

widescreen TVs have a setting to correct this. If your TV doesn’t, and 4:3 programs appear stretched, select this option to correct the problem.

Notes:

•This setting does not apply to DVD menus.

•When the HDMI OUT signal is at a resolution of 720p or 1080i, programs in 4:3 format will appear stretched, so we recommend that you select the 16:9 Com- pressed option.

•With some DVD-Video discs this setting may have no effect. See the disc’s sleeve notes to see which picture format is used.
