Viewing wide-screen picture formats

You can view programs that have the conventional TV picture format
(4:3 aspect ratio) and the wide-screen format (16:9 aspect ratio). This
feature is available for 1080i digital broadcasts and 480p/480i DVD
signals connected to the ColorStream HD1 or HD2 jacks.

Selecting the image shape (picture size)

1. The ColorStream HD1 or HD2 mode must be selected (see page

39 for details).

2. Press PIC SIZE repeatedly to select either Normal, Letterbox, or

Compression image shape (as described below). Or, while the
menu (below) is on-screen, select the desired image shape by
pressing the corresponding number button (0–2).

Note: The message “Not Available” will appear when the PIC SIZE button

is pressed in a mode other than ColorStream HD1 or HD2.

Normal image shape

The Normal mode displays a wide (16:9)
picture in the conventional 4:3 aspect
ratio. The picture is stretched vertically to
fill the screen.

Letterbox image shape (recommended mode)

The Letterbox mode displays a wide (16:9) picture in the 16:9 aspect
ratio. The picture retains its true
proportion. Gray bars appear at the top
and bottom of the screen. The number of
scanning lines is reduced, which reduces
the picture quality; however, this also
reduces the possibility of CRT burn-in
(less than in Compression mode).

Compression image shape

The Compression mode displays a wide (16:9) picture in the 16:9
aspect ratio. The picture retains its true
proportion. Black bars appear at the top
and bottom of the screen. The number of
scanning lines is not reduced, which
retains the original picture quality;
however, this also increases the possibility
of CRT burn-in (more than in Letterbox
mode).
