Note
1 Many widescreen discs override the system’s settings so that the disc is shown in letterbox format regardless of the setting.
Set to 4:3 (Letter Box), widescreen
discs are shown with black bars top
and bottom.
Set to
4:3 (Pan&Scan)
, widescreen
discs are shown with the left and right
sides cropped. Although the picture
looks larger, you don’t actually see
the whole picture.
2 • Using the
16:9 (Wide)
setting with a standard 4:3 TV, or one of the
4:3
settings with a widescreen TV, will result in distortion.
• When you watch discs recorded in 4:3 format, you can use the TV controls to select how the picture is presented. Your TV
may offer various zoom and stretch options; see the instructions that came with your TV for details.
• Some movie aspect ratios are wider than 16:9, so even with a widescreen TV, these discs will still play in a ‘letterbox’ style.
