Selecting the Correct Aspect Ratio

You can configure

the aspect ratio of any output image to fit your application. The

VP-730 offers six different aspect ratio settings: Best Fit, Letterbox, Follow Output,
Virtual Wide, Follow Input, and Custom. Here is how each of these settings works.

BEST FIT

– This setting re-sizes the video or graphics

input signal to “best fit” the output resolution while

maintaining the aspect ratio of the input signal. For

example, a composite video signal (4:3 aspect ratio) will

“best fit” to the top and bottom of a widescreen output

image, resulting in black pillars on either side.

LETTERBOX

– This setting compresses the top and

bottom edges of the input signal, but fills the width of

the screen.

FOLLOW OUTPUT

– The aspect ratio and resolution

of the input signal is re-sized to precisely match the

aspect ratio and resolution of the

VP-730 output

signal. This may result in some distortion to the input

signal images

VIRTUAL WIDE

– The input signal is stretched

horizontally to fit the width of a widescreen output

image from the

VP-730. This setting is used to

expand anamorphic (horizontally compressed) video

images from DVDs

FOLLOW INPUT

– The aspect ratio and resolution of

the input video or graphics signal are both preserved.

For example, a composite video image with a 4:3

aspect ratio will appear with the same aspect ratio on

a 1080p (16:9) output image, surrounded by black

bars

CUSTOM

– Use this menu to define a custom aspect

ratio by adjusting the output image horizontal size

(width) and vertical size (height)
