•4:3 Letter Box

Select when you want to see the total 16:9 ratio screen DVD supplies, even though you have a TV with a 4:3 ratio screen. Black bars will appear at the top and bottom of the screen.

•16:9 Wide

You can view the full 16:9 picture on your widescreen TV.

✎NOTE

When using HDMI, the screen is automatically converted to the 16:9 Wide mode and TV Aspect is deactivated.

If a DVD is in the 4:3 ratio, you cannot view it in the wide screen.

Since DVD discs are recorded in various image formats, they will look different depending on the software, the type of TV, and the TV aspect ratio setting.
