Setting the TV Screen Size
– DVD
The width-to-height ratio of conventional TVs is 4:3,
while the width-to-height ratio of wide screen and
high-definition TVs is 16:9. This width-to-height ratio is
called the aspect ratio.
When viewing software recorded in different aspect
ratios, the image’s height to width ratio can be switched
to match the TV or monitor being used.
Make changes to the TV screen size in the
[TV Screen]
setting in the Setup screen

menu. Please note
that changes to the
[TV Screen]
setting cannot be made
when a disc is playing. Stop playback of the disc before
attempting to make any changes.

Notes
• If
[Standard (4:3)]
is selected in the Setup Navigator
screen,
[4:3 (Letter Box)]
is selected on this screen. If you
prefer the pan&scan format, change the settings on this
screen.
• Whether the aspect can be switched or not depends on the
disc. Please refer to the information written on the disc
jacket, etc.
• Some discs may not include the screen format selected in
the
[TV Screen]
setting. When this occurs, the standard TV
screen format available on the disc is automatically
selected.
Differences in screen sizes and DVD formats
The number of screen size formats currently available
can be somewhat confusing. If set incorrectly, the video
presentation may not appear as it should. The following
diagrams and descriptions are intended to help you set
your TV screen size in a way that will allow you to fully
enjoy the digital video of DVD.
The settings in the
[TV Screen]
setting are perhaps
most applicable when the DVD you are watching is
programmed in the wide screen format. If you have a
standard TV, select either
[4:3 (Letter Box)]
or
[4:3 (Pan
& Scan)]
based on your personal preference. If you have
a wide screen TV, select
[16:9 (Wide)]
