PANORAMA CINEMA FULL REGULAR

When you change the aspect ratios, it is different from their broadcast or recorded program.

Aspect Ratios

PANORAMA - With this ratio a normal 4:3 aspect picture is stretched to fit the dimensions of the 16:9 aspect screen.

CINEMA - This ratio “zooms in” on the center part of a 4:3 aspect picture, blowing it up to fill the 16:9 screen.

FULL - This is the ratio to use when watching 16:9 High-Definition broadcasts.

Notes:

REGULAR - The regular ratio is used when you want to watch a 4:3 broadcast or recorded program without modifying the original picture to fit the dimensions of your 16:9 screen. The 4:3 picture will fill the screen from top to bottom, while black bars will appear to fill up the remaining space along the picture’s sides. The 4:3 picture will be centered within the boundaries of the 16:9 screen.

•You can also access the FRONT PANEL CONTROL screen by using the MENU button on the side of the TV instead of the remote control. It appears between INITIAL SETUP and PICTURE ADJUST screen, and it has VIDEO STATUS and ASPECT menus. Choose

ASPECT by pressing MENU† on the side panel and choose a mode by using the CHANNEL +/- buttons ( √ OPERATE ® ).
