Native
(for 480i (HDMI), 480p (HDMI), 720p, 1080i, and 1080p signal
programs)
If receiving a 1080i, 1080p, 720p, 480i (HDMI), or
480p (HDMI) signal program, the video is scaled to display the entire picture within the borders of the screen (i.e. no overscanning).
This is especially useful for external HD sources
such as DVHS movies, Video Games, or PC graphics.
None of the picture is hidden.
Note:
This mode is supported only for HDMI (1080i, 1080p,
720p, 480i, and 480p), ColorStream® (1080i and
720p), and ANT/CABLE (digital) inputs (1080i, 1080p,
and 720p).
Depending on the input signal, the picture’s border
may be hidden, displayed in black, or noisy.
