Helpful Hints

Selecting a different TV MODE setting is only effective if it is available on the DVD.

DVDs may refer to the Letterbox format as the widescreen ver- sion. Letterbox stretches the pic- ture horizontally so the picture resembles movies seen at a the- ater.

DVDs may refer to Pan and Scan as “reformatting the pic- ture to fit your TV screen.”
