Picture Menu

TV Shape

With this setting you can select a picture format to match the aspect ratio of your TV.

4:3 Letter box (default):

Choose this option if you have a standard TV (4:3 aspect ratio). When you watch widescreen DVD-Video movies, the entire pic- ture will be visible and there will be black bars at the top and bottom of the screen, as shown.

4:3 Pan Scan:

Choose this option if you have a

standard TV (4:3 aspect ratio) and want to use the full height of the screen when watching widescreen DVD-Video movies. In order to use the full height of the screen, the pic-

ture will be cropped on both sides, as shown. This option won’t work with discs that don’t support pan and scan.

16:9 Widescreen:

Choose this option if you have a widescreen TV (16:9 aspect ratio). Depends on TV, the picture appears stretched when watching programs in 4:3 format.

16:9 Compressed:

Choose this option if you have a widescreen TV (16:9 aspect ratio) and the picture appears stretched when watching pro- grams in 4:3 format. This option will correct the issue.

Notes:

•This setting does not apply to DVD menus.

•When the HDMI OUT signal is at a resolution of 720p or 1080i, programs in 4:3 format will appear stretched, so we recommend that you select the “16:9 Com- pressed” option.

•With some DVD-Video discs this setting may have no effect. See the disc’s sleeve notes to see which picture format is used.

View Mode

With this setting you can adjust the aspect of the picture so that it fits your TV screen. Due to your TV’s aspect ratio setting and the DVD’s aspect ratio, black bars may appear above and below the picture or at the sides and the aspect of the picture may be unsuitable. In this case, use this setting to adjust the aspect of the picture as you like.

Normal (default):

The picture is displayed in its original aspect ratio.

View Mode1:

The picture is stretched horizontally to make it fit the height of the screen.

View Mode2:

The picture is stretched vertically to make it fit the width of the screen.

View Mode3:

The picture is stretched horizontally and vertically.

Tip:

The view mode can also be changed by using the remote controller’s [Aspect] button.

Note:

This setting does not apply to DVD menus.

HDMI Output Setting

With this setting you can turn the HDMI video output on or off. See page 30 for more information.

On (default):

Video is output by the HDMI OUT.

Off:

Video is not output by the HDMI OUT.

Tip:

This setting can also be changed by using the [HDMI] button on the front panel (see page 30).

Note:

When this setting is set to “On”, video is output by the analog video outputs only when the “HD Resolution” is set to “480p”.
