[GENERAL q Video Out q TV Screen]

Because the shape of the television or monitor may not match the shape of the movie frame, you may need to change the way in which the image is displayed to avoid distortion on older televisions, which use a 4:3 aspect ratio; high-definition televisions use 16:9 (as do movies).

Note that you may need to read your television’s manual in conjunction with this section in order to achieve the best results. Some discs do not allow the aspect ratio to be changed and you will therefore have to change the aspect ratio on the TV.

Make this setting while playback is stopped; you cannot do this while playing back a disc.

16:9 *

Use with a 16:9 wide television.

If a television is connected using the S-Video output, the signal can be set to change the aspect ratio of the television automatically.

In addition to the information of S1, “4:3 Letterbox” information is included in the S2-Video signal. If your wide- screen television is compatible with S2-Video, correct aspect ratio will be selected automatically.
