This function works with DVD-Rs and DVD-

“4:3.”
For DVD-RWs (VR mode), the actual picture
size is recorded regardless of the setting. For
example, if a 16:9 size picture is received, the
disc records the picture as 16:9 even if “DVD
Rec. Picture Size” is set to “4:3.”
For DVD+RWs/DVD+Rs, the screen size is
fixed at “4:3.”

Repeat steps 2 and 3 to adjust any other items.

Notes

selected size is recorded. However, if the 16:9 signal
cannot be recorded as 16:9, it is recorded as 4:3.

image is fixed to 4:3 letter box regardless of the setting
in “TV Type” of Video Setup (page 87).

• Remnants of images may appear on your screen when

using “Rec NR.”

• “Rec Video Equalizer” does not affect the input of the
