Setting the Aspect Ratio (ASPECT)
You can press ASPECT to set the aspect ratio to 4:3, SQUEEZE, or LETTER BOX. You can
select the aspect ratio when the output format is set to certain SDTV component formats, or
when the output format is set to any of the composite formats and certain patterns are selected.
See Table 12-2, “List of output patterns.”
You can carry out this procedure when the word ASPECT is illuminated. If it is not illuminated,
pressing the key produces no effect.
