VIDEO OUTPUT SETTINGS

TV Screen

• Default setting: 16:9 (Wide)

If you have a widescreen TV, select the 16:9 (Wide) setting—widescreen DVD software is then shown using the full screen area. When playing software recorded in conventional (4:3) format, the settings on your TV will determine how the material is presented—see the manual that came with your TV for details on what options are available.

If you have a conventional TV, select either 4:3 (Letter Box) or 4:3 (Pan & Scan). In Letter Box mode, widescreen software is shown with black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. Pan

&Scan chops the sides off widescreen material to make it fit the 4:3 screen (so even though the image looks larger on the screen, you’re actually seeing less of the picture).

S-video Out

• Default setting: S2

You only need to make this setting if you connected this player to your TV using an S-video cord. If you find that the picture is stretched or distorted on the default S2 setting, try

changing it to S1.

STILL PICTURE

• Default setting: Auto

This player uses one of two processes when displaying a still frame from a DVD disc. The default Auto setting automatically chooses the best setting each time.

•Field – produces a stable, generally shake-free image.

•Frame – produces a sharper image, but more prone to shake than field stills.
