Table 6: HD Content/HD Output

Standard (Factory Default)

Expand (Temporary)

Shrink (Temporary)

Select the Standard setting when you want to view a high-definition image with no adjustment.

Select the Expand setting to horizontally stretch a 16:9 image. This may be useful for some broadcasts that were produced in 4:3 aspect ratio and are broadcast in a 16:9 aspect ratio. Objects in the image will appear wider than normal and left and right portions of the image will not be shown.

Select the Shrink setting to horizontally compress a 16:9 image. Objects in the image will appear thinner than normal and black bars will appear at the left and right side of the 16:9 image.

To choose a Screen Mode, use the SCREEN MODE button on the remote control or change the default setting of the Screen Mode in the main menu.
