Auto mode determines the best aspect ratio to fill the screen using a four step process (WSS, Control signal through 
SCART / HDMI terminal, Letterbox detection or Justify to fill the screen).
This process may take several minutes, depending on the darkness of the image.
Letterbox detection:
If black bands at the top and bottom of the screen are detected, Auto mode chooses the best ratio and expands the 
image to fill the screen.
If no aspect signals are detected, Auto mode enhances the image for optimum viewing pleasure.

 

The ratio varies depending on the programme, etc. If the ratio is out of the standard 16:9, black bands at the top and 
bottom of the screen may appear.

 

If the screen size looks unusual when a widescreen-recorded programme is played back on a VCR, adjust the 
tracking of the VCR. Read the manual of the VCR.
