“home cinema”) experience that is
promised with High Definition TV

conventional 4:3 aspect ratio
(width-to-height) broadcasts in
order to fit your TV’s projection
screen format; or to reset the
screen to best match the current
programming.

SMART HELP
Note: The basic
relationship between a TV
screen’s width to height, or aspect
ratio, has historically been 33%
wider than the picture screen
height (or a 4:3 aspect ratio).
Another aspect ratio used with
with today’s movie and program
viewing is 16: 9 (or screen
material is produced nearly 80%
wider than its measure height,
which accounts for a 16:9 aspect
ratio). Your TV’s Zoom, Theater,
and Anamorphic display modes
are intended to assist you in
setting the TV for the dramatic,
lifelike viewing of original version
movies and cinemas (similar to the
type found in your local theaters).
See the feature descriptions to the
right on this page for further
details on specific TV Display
modes and their various uses.
4 X 3 (Standard) -
Conventional TV picture
format shows onscreen.
Zoom 1/2 - Full screen mode
with linear expansion to view
program broadcasts. Onscreen
image material remains
horizontally and vertically
proportional as the image area
is increased in size.
Theater 1/2 - Expanded zoom
modes with picture images
increased in magnification.
Designed for use with
“letterbox” or cropped movie
images such as found with
Cinemascope or Cinerama
type program material.
Note: With the Theater modes
there can be some vertical loss
of information as the edges of
the picture expands and fills
the screen.
Anamorphic - Picture is
displayed to fill a 16:9 type
aspect ratio screen area.
Intended for use with select
cinema or wide screen movie
features available on certain
model DVD players. Most of
the non-linear picture
expansion is performed toward
the outer edges so that correct
proportions are retained in the
center of the screen. Black bar
areas show on the top and
bottom margins of the screen.
