Screen Format

The Screen Format feature allows you to change how the image of a 4:3 picture
is displayed on your 16:9 screen. The options are Normal, Cinerama, Zoom or
Stretch. If your TV receives an image with a 4:3 aspect ratio, the image can be
displayed in one of four ways:

Normal

The image of a 4:3 video signal is centered with bars on the right

and left sides of the screen.

Cinerama

The image of a 4:3 video signal is centered, expanding in the

horizontal direction to fill the display with little distortion.

Stretch

The image of a 4:3 video signal is stretched horizontally by

approximately 33% while the vertical size stays the same.

Zoom

The image of a 4:3 video signal increases by approximately 33%

and the vertical size increases by approximately 33%. Edges of the image
might be cropped.

Note:

When recording from the AUDIO/VIDEO OUTPUT jacks, use

Normal or Stretch to record the video closest to its original format.

Turn on Automatic Format Switching so that as you change channels, the TV
will change formats for you.

Notes:

There is no ability provided to change the screen format for a

16:9 video signal since it fills up the entire area of the TV’s screen.

The format of some video cannot be changed even though it appears to
be a 4:3 aspect-ratio picture.

The FORMAT button on the remote lets you change the format with a
one-button press rather than navigating to the Screen Format menu.

Time Menu

The Time menu lets you set up time-related features and a DTVLink timed
recording. Time menu consists of Sleep Timer, Record/Wake Timer, and Time
of Day.

Sleep Timer

A one-time event that is used to set the TV to turn off at a

specific time.

Record/Wake Timer

Used to turn the TV on and off at a specific time

every day of the week and tune to a specific channel or video input. In
addition, it sets the TV to make a DTVLink recording if a DTVLink
component is connected, set up, and the channel selected is digital. See
page 51 for more information on a DTVLink Recording.

Time of Day

Enables you to enter the correct time manually. If you don’t

enter the time, it is acquired from the last tuned digital channel. Make sure
you check that the time acquired is correct.

Note:

If you enter the time manually, you must remember to set your

TV’s time when the time changes to Daylight Saving Time. Sleep Timer
and Record/Wake Timer will not function as you expect if you forget to
change the TV’s time.
