Manual format setting
Pressing
PIC SIZE
repeatedly scrolls through the following
options.
4:3
This mode shows a 4:3 picture in its original size and shape with
vertical bands on the left and right side.
FULL SCREEN
Stretches the left and right hand sides of a 4:3 picture
horizontally to fill the screen, while leaving the centre of the
picture unstretched.
Note:
• In this mode the picture is geometrically distorted on the left
and the right sides of the screen.
16:9
This mode is used with 16:9 signals from a Digital decoder, DVD
player or other external source. This uniformly stretches a 4:3
image horizontally to fill the screen (For example, a 16:9 image
is often stored “anamorphically” on a DVD, where the 16:9
image is stored as a horizontally compressed 4:3 image - this
mode restores the image to its correct 16:9 proportions).
CINEMA:
This mode is used to zoom-in on (expand) 4:3 ‘letterbox’ format
pictures (with black bars at the top and bottom) so that they fill
more of the screen.
Note:
• In the CINEMA mode, part of the picture may be slightly cut
off due to the expansion. However, it is possible to scroll the
picture up or down to view the top or bottom part of the picture
(see page 18).
14:9
This enlarges a 4:3 picture to the 14:9 format.
Picture format
AUTO
Press
PIC SIZE
repeatedly until AUTO
appears.
The broadcaster may transmit a Wide Screen Signalling (WSS) signal which can determine the correct
picture width and set it automatically when the AUTO setting is used. If you want to change this setting, you
can select from the formats listed below.
(16:9)
FULL SCREEN
(CINEMA)
(14:9)
Notes:
When the PICTURE SIZE is set
to AUTO, the aspect ratio will
automatically change according
to the Wide Screen Signalling
(WSS) signal, if it is available. This
may be either transmitted by the
broadcasting TV channel, or via a
recording from a VCR etc. Any WSS
signal received will only be effective
in the AUTO mode - however, some
DVD players / Digital Decoders etc.
will automatically switch the aspect
ratio via the SCART input (Pin 8
switching), even if AUTO is not
selected.
In any case if you want to change
to a different aspect ratio to the one
selected automatically, you can
change it by pressing
PIC SIZE
.
In PC mode, the PICTURE SIZE
feature is available only for 16:9 or
4:3 format. (In ‘WXGA INPUT’ mode,
the PICTURE SIZE feature is not
available.)
In HDMI or COMPONENT mode of
scanning rate: 720p and 1080i, the
PICTURE SIZE feature is available
only for 16:9 format.
Using the special functions to change
the size of the displayed image (i.e.
changing the height/width ratio) for
the purposes of public display or
commercial gain may infringe on
copyright laws.
