Wide-Screen vs. Standard Formats
4:3 TVs Showing 16:9 programs
For a standard 4:3 TV showing a wide screen program, the program is too wide to fi t on the screen. To
alleviate this, choose:
Letterbox
With this format, the 16:9 image is shrunk until the entire width of the program fi ts on your TV. Since
the aspect ratio of the program is maintained, the image is no longer tall enough to fi ll your screen, so
gray or black bars are seen at the top and bottom of the screen. To change the bar color, press MENU,
then select
Settings.
Select
Setup
, then select the
Display
menu. Highlight the
Preferences
tab and press
SELECT, then set
Bar Color
option to the desired color. See your TV owner manual for information on
the best color for your set.
Stretch
In the Stretch setting, instead of adding bars to the top and bottom, the 16:9 program image is stretched
vertically until it’s tall enough to fi ll the screen. Your entire screen will be full, but the program images
are stretched to compensate.
Crop
Th
is format crops (cuts off ) the left and right portions of the 16:9 frame so it fi ts the 4:3 screen.
You can watch
HD programs
on a standard
TV, but you
won’t really be
watching HD.
