4 x 3 P&S – Choose this setting if you want the movie to fill the entire screen of your TV. This might mean that parts of the picture (the left and right edges) won’t be seen.
Most discs produced in a widescreen format can’t be cropped in this fashion. This means the black bars will appear at the top and the bottom of the screen.
4 x 3 LB – Choose this setting if you want to see movies in their original aspect ratio
16 x 9 Wide – Choose this setting if your DVD Player is connected to a widescreen TV. If you choose this setting and you don’t have a widescreen TV, the images on the screen may appear distorted due to vertical compression.
If you play a disc recorded in 4 x 3 format on a widescreen TV, black bars will appear on the left and right side of the screen.
