Possibleaspect ratio se ttings and their effect on differentsources in the iQ.

We can conclude that the thumb rule for DVD projection is to always leave the projector in 4:3 format except when dealing with

anamorphic sources where the 16:9 setting allows the best reproduction.

Selecting Auto in case of a Video source may shrink the image horizontally
