You cannot fully enjoy wide-screen programmes with your normal-screen television as the above figures show. The left figure shows a normal picture displayed in the normal screen. To watch wide-screen programmes in the shape like the center figure, set the 16:9 Display Format option to Letter Box. Wide- screen pictures then will be reduced to fit to the width of the normal screen. Otherwise, to watch them in the shape like the right figure, set it to Center extract. Wide-screen pictures then will be cut out on the left and right sides equally to fit to the width of the normal screen.

3.1.2 High definition television

The digital receiver supports various video resolutions from 576 to 1080. In general a resolution of 720 or more is consid- ered high definition. The higher the resolution is, the better quality you can enjoy. However, if your television set does not support high definition, you cannot enjoy high definition quality picture.

Set the Video Format option as you desire. If you set this option to 576P, the digital receiver will present even high def- inition programmes in resolution of 576. On the contrary, if you set it to 1080I, the digital receiver will present even stan- dard definition programmes in resolution of 1080. It is rec- ommended to set it to Auto if you have a high definition tele- vision. With that setting the digital receiver will present a pro-

gramme as it is without any resolution conversion. You can change the resolution with the V.Format
button when you are watching a programme. Whenever you press it, the video res- olution is changed by turns.
