TV Aspect Ratio
You can set the screen aspect ratio of the connected
TV, and adjust the video output.
If you switch your TV (i.e. because you have bought a
new one) and the screen aspect ratio of the connected
TV changes, you will have to change the “TV Aspect
Ratio” setting.
Wide 16:9: Select this when connecting to a TV with a
16:9 screen aspect ratio.
Normal 4:3: Select this when connecting to a TV with a
4:3 screen aspect ratio.
<When selecting Normal 4:3>
Letter Box: If you connect to a TV with a screen aspect
ratio of 4:3 and playback a DVD with 16:9 video, the
video will be played back with black bands at the top
and bottom while maintaining the 16:9 ratio.
Pan Scan: If you connect to a TV with a screen aspect
ratio of 4:3 and playback a DVD with 16:9 video, the
video will be played back with the left and right sides of
the image cut off to display in 4:3 screen aspect ratio.
(This function works if the disc is labelled for 4:3PS.)
