Setting Description
4:3 Override
The 4:3 Override setting allows you to specify the video output format of the
DCX3400 when it is tuned to a Standard-Definition program or playing back a
Standard- Definition program from the DVR. Options include 480i, 480p,
Stretch, and Off. By default, the 480i option is selected.
The options are used as follows:

480i — The DCX3400 will present Standard-Definition programs in
the Standard-Definition 480i format (720 x 480 pixels).
•
480p — The DCX3400 will present Standard-Definition programs in
the Enhanced-Definition 480p format (720 x 480 pixels).
•
Stretch — The DCX3400 will automatically stretch all Standard-
Definition programs to a widescreen aspect ratio and present the
video in the format designated by the HDMI/YPbPr Output setting.
Note that the Stretch option is only available when the TV Type
setting is 16:9.
•
Off — The DCX3400 will create a widescreen version of a Standard-
Definition program by adding black bars to the left and the right of the
picture and present the video in the format designated by the
HDMI/YPbPr Output setting.
Note 1: Some televisions may only support certain video formats. Please
consult your television’s user manual for more information on format
compatibility.
Note 2: If the HDMI/YPbPr Output setting is set to either 480i or Native, the
4:3 Override feature is disabled and is no longer selectable in the menu. The
4:3 Override feature is available when the HDMI/YPbPr Output setting is
1080i, 720p, or 480p.
