Runco LS-100d User Manual

Cinema

CINEMA

Select Cinema to view 2.35 
source material in its native 
aspect ratio.

With a 16:9 screen and a 
standard LS-100d (without an 
anamorphic lens), the upper and 
lower portions of the screen are 
masked, but the geometry of the 
active image area is unchanged.

With a 2.35:1 screen and an 
anamorphic lens, the DHD 
Controller scales the 2.35:1 
image so that the active image 
area fills the 16:9 chip surface, 
eliminating the black bars. The 
secondary, anamorphic lens 
then restores the proper 
geometry to the 2.35:1 image. 

Virtual Cinema

V-CINE

A 16:9 image is scaled 
NON-linearly (more on the sides 
than in the center) to fit a 2.35:1 
screen. 

Native

NATIVE

Select Native to display the 
source signal in its native 
resolution, centered in the 
display area with no re-sizing or 
overscan. 

This means, for example, that 
720p HDTV programs will 
display with unused pixels on all 
sides: 320 on the left and right 
sides and 180 above and below. 

With SDTV and EDTV sources, 
the DHD Controller scales the 
image horizontally to achieve a 
16:9 aspect ratio.
