Selecting the aspect ratio

The “aspect ratio” is the ratio of the image width to the image height. Most analog TV and 
some computers are in 4:3 ratio, and digital TV and DVDs are usually in 16:9 ratio.

With the advent of digital signal processing, digital display devices like this projector can 
dynamically stretch and scale the image output to a different aspect than that of the image 
input signal.

To change the projected picture ratio (no matter what aspect the source is):

Using the remote control

1.

Press ASPECT to show the current setting.

2.

Press ASPECT repeatedly to select an aspect ratio to suit the format of the video signal 
and your display requirements.

3.

Press  /

 to select an aspect ratio to suit the format of the video signal and your 

display requirements.
