16:9 (high-definition) source
Most HDTV signals use a wide screen aspect
ratio of 16:9. The 16:9 fills your BRAVIA
screen, maintaining a crisp, clear, vivid
picture.
4:3 (standard-definition) source
Most standard-definition signals use a boxy
4:3 aspect ratio. When a 4:3 image is
displayed on an HDTV, you will see black
bars on the sides. The picture quality may not
