Set the screen aspect ratio for
the television
Select the value matching the type of televi-
sion connected. Select [16:9(Wide)] when a
wide-screen television is connected. Most
DVD movies are recorded to support wide
television screens with an aspect of 16 hori-
zontal to 9 vertical. As a result, when DVDs
are viewed on conventional televisions, the
image is projected at the television's aspect
ratio of 4:3, causing it to appear horizontally
compressed. In order to eliminate this kind of
distortion, set the aspect ratio either for [4:3
(Letter Box)] or [4:3(Pan&Scan)] when us-
ing a conventional television.
¶ This setting cannot be changed during play-
back.
