HOW CAN I CHANGE HOW THE PICTURE LOOKS ON MY TV?
Press SETTINGS twice to display the General Settings menu. Then,
choose one of the following options:
Fixed — The screen resolution you selected from the Setup Wizard
can be seen in the Quick Settings menu. The screen resolution remains
the same (fixed) until you change it.
Pass-Through — This option provides a built-in convenience factor. The
set-top attempts to convert the signal of an incoming program to the best
picture format for your HDTV screen. However, if you have not selected all
the screen resolutions that are available, the screen resolution defaults to the best selection available based on the
selections you made in the HDTV Setup Wizard.
Upconvert 1 and Upconvert 2 — The operation of these two options is similar to that of the Pass-Through
option. See the Display Formats For Digital Sources table below.
Auto DVI or HDMI — If your HDTV is connected through the DVI or HDMI output, you will see this option and
not the Pass-Through option. Incoming programming is automatically formatted to the scan rate supported by
your HDTV.
DISPLAY FORMATS FOR DIGITAL SOURCES
The following table illustrates the relationship between the format option you chose, the signal the set-top receives,
