This feature will help you adjust the picture you are watching to give you the best possible picture quality.

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.

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.

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

CINEMA ZOOM - This ratio stretches the High-Definition 16:9 aspect image to eliminate the black surrounding bars.

PANORAMA ZOOM - This ratio stretches the High-Definition 16:9 aspect image to eliminate the black side bars.
