the HDMI connection on the DCH receiver, the HDMI/YPbPr Output setting will display

 

as YPbPr Output in the User Settings Menu.

receiver when it is tuned to a Standard-Definition program or playing back a Standard-

Standard-Definition 480i format (720 x 480 pixels).

 

• 480p — The DCH receiver will present Standard-Definition programs in the

 

Enhanced-Definition 480p format (720 x 480 pixels).

 

• Stretch — The DCH receiver will automatically stretch all Standard-Definition

 

programs to a widescreen aspect ratio and present the video in the format

 

designated by the HDMI/YPbPr Output setting. Note that the Stretch option is

 

only available when the TV Type setting is 16:9.

 

• Off — The DCH will create a widescreen version of a Standard-Definition

 

program by adding black bars to the left and the right of the picture and present

 

the video in the format designated by the HDMI/YPbPr Output setting.

 

Some televisions may only support certain video formats. Please consult your

 

television’s user manual for more information on format compatibility.

 

If the HDMI/YPbPr Output setting is 480i, the 4:3 Override feature is disabled and is no
