When the input source is HDMI, the
Panorama mode is not available. When the
input source is PC, the Zoom1, Zoom2, and
Panorama modes are not available.
Some stations transmit Standard-definition
programming directly in 16:9 aspect ratio
so that the image has embedded dark side
bars. For that type of input signal, the
Panorama mode is not available, and the
Zoom1 and Zoom2 modes do not eliminate
the side bars.
Use the onscreen display Picture menu option Aspect
Ratio to set the default aspect; see "Using the Picture
Menu" on page 31.
