together with knowledge of the display shape and user preferences, to
choose a presentation mode.

incoming signal to make the highest resolution and most accurate
picture possible. While aspect ratio signaling allows the display
device to produce the best image possible

Note: AFD (Active Format Description) has been added to many digital interfaces for the purpose of
identifying the video payload*. AFD solves a problem in the transition from conventional 4:3 display devices
to widescreen 16:9 displays. Active area signaling allows the display device to process the incoming signal
to make the highest resolution and most accurate picture possible.
*Video payload is defined as the picture carried by a digital interface and comprising a matrix of horizontal
and vertical pixels. The matrix usually comprises a multiplex of luminance and color components.
