WIDESCREEN

TV sets are available with screens of the standard

(4:3) format and widescreen (16:9) format. When

you first installed your receiver you specified the

format of the connected TV (this can now be altered

if necessary; see Section 3 - ADVANCED

OPERATION - Configuring Your Receiver).

Digital terrestrial television broadcasts are also made

in both standard and widescreen formats. In

particular, films and dramas tend to be broadcast

in widescreen format to closer emulate the cinema

experience, but even some news bulletins are

widescreen. To help get the most from both TV set

and programme when a widescreen film is watched

on a standard TV, or a standard broadcast is viewed

on a widescreen set, the receiver includes the

[WIDE] key.

So long as the receiver has been correctly set up

for the TV set connected, a widescreen programme

will always be displayed correctly on a widescreen

set, and a standard format programme will correctly

fill the screen of a standard format TV.

With a standard format TV displaying a widescreen

programme, the [WIDE] key switches between

displaying the picture with black bars at the top and

bottom of the screen, and filling the whole height of

the screen but cropping the sides off according to

instructions broadcast with the programme (called

'pan and scan').

The effect of the [WIDE] key on the picture display

is cancelled by pressing [WIDE] again, changing

channel or turning the receiver to standby.

Subtitle

With Digital terrestrial broadcasting, some

programmes are broadcast with subtitles.

Subtitles can be displayed when watching these

programmes.

TV / DTV Key

If there is no connected  VCR device, The TV/DTV

key is used to switch TV and DIGITAL TV modes.

When the set-top box is in TV mode, the TV scart

is not switched and the TV operates in analog mode.

When the set-top box is in DIGITAL TV mode, this

time the TV scart is switched on and the TV is

switched to AV/RGB mode. And also, when there is

no menu on the screen , pressing TV/DTV key  will

manually toggle the set top box between VCR mode

and TV mode. In VCR mode set top box will display

the output of VCR device , In TV mode set top box

displays its own outputs. If box scart mode is not

changed by pressing TV/DTV key , scart mode will

be automatically detected . (For example if a dvd

player is connected to VCR scart and powered on

, then the set top box will immediately switch to VCR

mode. The set top box will switch to TV mode if dvd

player is switched off )
