Panasonic Auto
Panasonic Auto
determines the best aspect
ratio to use to display the picture you are viewing.
It does this using a four step process to
determine if the picture being viewed is a
widescreen picture.
If
Panasonic Auto
detects a widescreen signal it
switches into
16:9
widescreen mode.
If
Panasonic Auto
does not detect a widescreen
signal then this advanced TV set enhances the
picture for optimum viewing pleasure.
The text shown on the screen indicates how
Panasonic Auto
determined which ratio to use:
’WIDE’ appears in the top left of the screen if a widescreeen identification signal (WSS) is found
or a signal is found through a Scart socket.
Panasonic Auto
switches into
16:9
widescreen ratio.
’Panasonic Auto’ appears in the top left of the screen if black stripes above and below the picture
are detected.
Panasonic Auto
chooses the best ratio and expands the picture to fill the screen.
This process can take several minutes, depending how dark the picture is.
Equally, you may prefer to select one of the other modes available to view the picture.
Notes:
D
If, in
Panasonic Auto
mode, you experience problems with the screen display size when playing
back widescreen format recordings from your VCR (DVD/R) then it is possible that the tracking
control of your VCR (DVD/R) requires adjustment (your VCR (DVD/R) instruction book will contain
adjustment details).
D
The widescreen aspect ratios of different films and programmes can vary. If these are wider than a
standard 16:9 aspect picture then a black band may be visible at the top and bottom of the screen.
16:9
16:9
will display a true 16:9 (anamorphic) picture
with no aspect distortions.
