This television can make the most of the range of picture formats now
being transmitted. Many programmes are now being transmitted in Wide
formats 14:9 or 16:9 and films in wider formats known as Letterbox whilst
many programmes are the traditional 4:3 picture ratio.
It is possible to identify that the transmission is 4:3, Letterbox or
Wide screen format (14:9 or 16:9), but it is difficult to tell the difference
between 16:9 and 14:9.
You may choose to leave your Picture Format as Auto, your television will
automatically fill the screen, but this may not always give you what you
want. If so you can select from a range of picture formats. You can select
the Picture Format option either through the Menu screen or by pressing
the Wide button.
