Notes on selecting the wide screen mode

Select the wide screen mode taking into account that changing the aspect ratio of the original picture will provide a different look from that of the original image.

Note that if the projector is used for profit or for public viewing, modifying the original picture by switching to the wide mode may constitute an infringement of the rights of authors or producers, which are legally protected.
