Setting the picture size

Setting the picture size

You can view 480i format programs in three picture sizes—4:3, 16:9 and ZOOM.

Selecting the picture size

You can change the picture size by pressing the PICTURE SIZE button on the remote control.

If receiving an Analog signal, you can choose 4:3 or 16:9 picture size.

If you are receiving a Digital signal in the 4:3 format, you are restricted to the 4:3 picture size.

It receiving a Digital signal of 16:9, you can choose 16:9 or ZOOM.

4:3 picture size

To fill the screen, the top and bottom edges are extended more widely though the center of the picture remains near former ratio.

If receiving a 4:3 format program, the image is displayed its originally formatted proportion.

16:9 picture size

This image will display the size of standard 16:9 with black bars at the top and bottom.

If receiving a 4:3 format program, the image is displayed with black bars at the top and bottom and stretched wider.

NOTE:

If a fixed black bar remains on the screen for long periods of time, the image can become permanently engrained in the screen and cause subtle but permanent ghost images. Never leave your TV on for an extended period of time while displaying a stationary image(s).

ZOOM picture size (for 16:9 format programs)

The entire picture is uniformly enlarged—it is stretched the same amount both wider and taller (retains its original proportion). The right and left edges of the picture may be hidden.
