the selected input signal. The

Hue, Saturation and Sharpness adjustments are set to fixed values in order to
optimize the appearance of the image. To change these settings, select User in the
Picture Mode menu. Changes made to these settings will be saved to the unit’s
memory and can be recalled at any time by selecting User in the Picture Mode.
The

Underscan, and Full. The Scale function is used to alter the Aspect Ratio of the
output signal in order to achieve a desired format on the display or destination
device. The following are the menu selections for the Scale function and their effects:
Letterbox

used to remap source content from 4:3 aspect ratio to 16:9.

black bars at the top and bottom of a 16:9 letterbox source.

the content in the middle of the image. Best used to remap source content from
letterbox or 16:9 aspect ratio to 4:3.

in order to determine your display’s native resolution. Keep in mind that selecting
an output resolution that is not supported by your display can cause an apparent
malfunction.

when it has been accessed.
