CUSTOMIZING THE FUNCTION SETTINGS
Notes:
• When an HD DVD or a DVD has a particular picture shape, the contents may not be compatible with
other picture shapes.
• DVDs containing 4:3 picture only always display 4:3 pictures regardless of the TV Shape setting.
• If “16:9” is selected while connecting a 4:3 TV, playback pictures may be distorted horizontally or shrink
vertically. Make this setting according to your TV shape.
• Actual picture shape may depend on signal types of broadcasts or input sources, or settings on the
connected TV. Refer to the owner’s manual of your TV.
You can change the default settings to customize performance to your preference.
