Depending on the input signal, the picture format ratio allows you to adjust the images through the following options.

left and right of the image to preserve the original aspect ratio of the source. Note: Use this mode for

area of the picture will age more rapidly than the black areas.

to fill the 16:9 screen. The center of the image remains unaltered.
