wide screen viewing

Various broadcast stations now transmit movies and programs in true wide screen format. 

Your TV detects these signals and automatically switches your TV to the correct viewing format.

However, some broadcasters do not transmit this automatic sensing signal, and so your TV will not

recognise which format is being transmitted. Your viewing format can be selected manually by simply

pressing the          key on your handset to scroll through the viewing format options 

See the examples below for the available viewing formats.

The Auto format is also one which can be selected manually. 

Auto mode automatically detects various screen formats that are

transmitted in either conventional (4:3) or wide screen (16:9 or

14:9) format. After detecting which signal is being transmitted the

TV will automatically switch to the correct screen ratio. 

This broadcast is a wide

screen picture format.

This type of picture fills

the entire TV screen.

The 14:9 format is the

medium between the 4:3

and 16:9 ratio signals.

The 4:3 broadcast signal

gives black bars to the

sides of the screen which

is consistent with screen

compression.
