Widescreen TV users
If you have a widescreen TV, the TV Screen setting
(page 41) of this player should be set to “16:9 (Wide)”.
When you watch discs recorded in 4:3 format, you can
use the TV controls to select how the picture is pre-
sented. Your TV may offer various zoom and stretch
options; see the instructions that came with your TV for
details.
Please note that some movie aspect ratios are wider than
16:9, so even though you have a widescreen TV, these
discs will still play in a “letter box” style with black bars
at the top and bottom of the screen.
