What does aspect ratio mean?
Aspect ratio is ratio of the width to the height of the picture. This television has a screen with 4:3 aspect ratio.
Wide-screen films normally give a 'letter-box' effect on a 4:3 screen, which means there is a black bar above and
below the picture. Selecting '4:3' picture format with a wide-screen film fills the screen but things in the picture look
tall and thin. Selecting 'zoom' makes them look normal again, although a bit of the film disappears off each side of
the screen.
