Selecting
the aspect ratio

DVD

.

Set the aspect ratio to match the television connected to this
player. This setting is unnecessary when connected to a wide-
screen television.
Most DVD movies support a wide-screen television and the
screen size ratio (usually called the aspect ratio) is set to 16:9
(horizontal:vertical). Consequently, if a DVD is viewed on a
television of the conventional size, the 4:3 aspect ratio has
the effect of increasing the height of the image. Set the as-
pect ratio to 4:3 when viewing on a television of the conven-
tional size to eliminate this distortion. This setting cannot be
changed during playback.
