Setting Explanations

4:3: Sets the aspect ratio of the projected image to 4:3 (same as a standard TV screen). This setting is normally used when S-VIDEO or VIDEO is selected as the input source.

16:9: Sets the aspect ratio of the projected image to 16:9 (same as a movie screen or high-definition TV screen). Using this setting when the input source image is a 16:9 image that has been squeezed to a 4:3 image causes the image to be projected with its normal 16:9 aspect ratio.

Setting Storage

A different setting is stored for each input source.

zWhen a component signal with an aspect ratio of 16:9 is sent from the input source, the aspect ratio of the projected image is automatically switched to 16:9. In this case, this setting cannot be changed.

zUsing this projector to reduce, enlarge, or otherwise alter an image for business purposes or public display may infringe upon the rights of the individual who holds the copyright of the image.
