Aspect Ratio Explained
The TV will display the TV channel’s signal format automatically. There are
mainly two types of signal format, 16:9 and 4:3.
1. 16:9
This mode will stretch the picture to a widescreen ratio. If you have a perfect
16:9 ratio picture you will not see any black bars. If you are watching a
widescreen movie in 1.85:1 or 2.35:1 ratio, you will still get black bars on the
top and bottom of the screen. If you use this mode on 4:3 pictures they will
be stretched and distorted horizontally.
