Selecting the aspect ratio
The 'aspect ratio' is the ratio of the image width to the image height. Most analog TV and 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 image ratio (no matter what aspect the source is):
1.
Press
MENU/EXIT
and then press
/
until the
DISPLAY
menu is highlighted.
2.
Press
to highlight
Aspect Ratio

3.
Press
/
to select an aspect ratio to suit the format of the video signal and your display requirements.
About the aspect ratio
In the pictures below, the black portions are inactive areas and the white portions are active areas. OSD menus can be
displayed on those unused black areas.
1.
Auto
: Scales an image proportionally to fit the
projector's native resolution in its horizontal width or
its vertical height. This is suitable when you want to
make most use of the screen without altering the
image's aspect ratio.
2.
16:9
: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the
center of the screen with a 16:9 aspect ratio. This is
most suitable for images which are already in a 16:9
aspect, like high definition TV and 16:9 aspect DVD
movies, as it displays them without aspect alteration.
3.
Real
: The image is projected as its original resolution,
and resized to fit within the display area. For input
signals with lower resolutions, the projected image will
display smaller than if resized to full screen. You could
adjust the zoom setting or move the projector towards
the screen to increase the image size if necessary. You
may also need to refocus the projector after making
these adjustments.
4.
4:3
: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the center
of the screen with a 4:3 aspect ratio. This is most
suitable for 4:3 images like computer monitors,
standard definition TV and 4:3 aspect DVD movies, as
it displays them without aspect alteration.
