This feature will help you adjust the picture you are watching to give you the best possible
picture quality.
REGULAR
- The regular ratio is used
when you want to watch a 4:3 broadcast
or recorded program without modifying the
original picture to fit the dimensions of your
16:9 screen. The 4:3 picture will fill the
screen from top to bottom, while black bars
will appear to fill up the remaining space
along the picture’s sides. The 4:3 picture
will be centered within the boundaries of the
16:9 screen.

PANORAMA
- With this ratio a normal
4:3 aspect picture is stretched to fit the
dimensions of the 16:9 aspect screen.
CINEMA
- This ratio “zooms in” on the
center part of a 4:3 aspect picture, blowing
it up to fill the 16:9 screen.
FULL
- This is the ratio to use when
watching 16:9 broadcasts.
When you change the aspect ratios, it is different from their broadcast or recorded program.
