Aspect Ratio
Use the Aspect Ratio card in Settings to control how programming content appears on your
TV. For standard-definition (SD) TVs, choose Standard (4:3) only. You’ll then be asked to choose
how you want HD content to display on your TV, either by letterboxing (putting black pillars
on the top and bottom of the content) or cropping the content to fit.
For Widescreen TVs, determine how standard content displays on your TV by first choosing
Widescreen (16:9) and then selecting maintain (displays standard content as-is), or stretch
(stretches the standard content to fill the TV screen).
