program coming into the Receiver. For example, if Native Mode is 

ON and a program is being broadcast in 480p, your High-Definition 

Receiver prompts the TV to show it in that same format. If the next 

program changes to 1080i, the Receiver tells the TV to change to 

that format. Native Mode slows down the system’s response time to 

channel changes since the Receiver and TV must adjust the picture 

resolution at every channel change. Because of this, the default 

setting is OFF.  When Native Mode is OFF, your Receiver will display 

the program at the highest resolution set on the TV Resolutions 

screen. 

Screen Format:  When a program is broadcast in a format that does 

not exactly fit your TV screen, your Receiver will automatically size 

the picture.  Screen Format options include Original Format, Pillar 

Box (Widescreen 16:9 HDTVs only), Letterbox (Standard 4:3 TVs only), 

Stretch and Crop:  

  If you’re watching a widescreen movie on a Standard 4:3 TV, you 

may want to choose Letterbox which places bars on the top and 

bottom of the screen. 

  If your HDTV is 4:3 aspect ratio, you may want to Crop or cut 

off the content at the left and right side of the screen while 

preserving the proportion of the picture that remains. 

  You can also Stretch the picture vertically or horizontally to fill up 

the screen.

Bar Color:  Select the Bar Color option to set the color of the bars 

displayed when you view programming in Letterbox or Pillar Box 

modes.  

 

Set the aspect ratio that matches your TV.  Options are Standard 4:3 

or Widescreen 16:9.
