OPERATIONS

The horizontal-to-vertical screen size ratio of standard TVs is 4:3, while that of wide screen and high definition TVs is 16:9. This horizontal-to-vertical ratio is called the aspect ratio. On discs with which the aspect ratio cannot be changed, switch the screen size as necessary using the monitor button on the PDV-LC10 and the corresponding button on the TV.
