and be sure to turn off anamorphic stretch if already enabled in your projector. If
not using an A-lens you can safely ignore this section.

Scope screen setup:
Scoped screens are screens that have an aspect ratio wider
than 16:9. For instance 2.0:1 or 2.35:1. If you have a scoped screen and are not using
an anamorphic, you need to
“

”
Envy about your screen so that it can manage
all black bars and place subtitles for you where you can see them (otherwise they
will be off the screen).
To enable black bar detection and management, set the Envy Screen Boundaries
menu item to Custom, display 2.40 content and adjust your projector lens so that
the image fits your screen perfectly side to side. Then display 16:9 content and
adjust the Top and Bottom values under Screen Boundaries so that the image fits
within the height of your screen
–
this will enable the Envy
’s
automatic black bar
detection. For users with scoped screens and no A-lens, this feature is very
convenient, as it will automatically fit 16:9 content to your screen without cropping,
while showing scoped content at full screen (especially great when switching back
and forth from movies and a 16:9 movie selection / poster wall screen). It will also
do some pretty amazing things for managing your subtitles (see the Black Bar
Configuration menu on your Envy for more).

Audio delay adjustment (if necessary)
: If your AVR/AVP is set up for auto lip sync
adjustment, Envy will automatically adjust the audio delay as needed. If you should
find that you still need small adjustment despite using auto lip sync, you can do so in
the Envy HDMI Configuration menu (Menu button, then right-arrow until you see
this menu). If you are not using auto-lip sync, you will need to adjust your AVR/AVP
accordingly. In which case note that the video processing in Envy adds roughly
175ms delay to the audio. Therefore, please adjust the audio delay in your audio
processor accordingly (only if not using auto lip sync). If you have an AVP that adds
its own processing delay, such as a Trinnov or Storm Audio, subtract its audio delay
from the 175ms (for instance if your AVP has an audio delay of 50ms, set
you’re the
audio delay to 175 - 50 = 125ms). If you have the movie Ready Player One, a great
clip to adjust audio delay is the car race scene around the 10-minute mark of the
movie. A flare that is launched in an arch-like fashion, with a whistling sound as it
nears the ground, and then explodes like a firework. Likewise, many test discs have
lip sync patterns. You likely will have to adjust the source for each of your audio
processors HDMI inputs if not using auto lip-sync.

Pass-thru port:
Envy features a near-zero latency pass-thru port perfect for gaming.
You can run an HDMI cable from this port directly to another input on your display.
Or alternatively if you wish to have just one cable run to your display - you can use a
