You can use the [Setup Navigator] in the Setup screen
General to set whether you are using a wide screen or
standard size TV or monitor (page 19). Additionally, you
can use the [TV Screen] setting in the Setup screen
Video menu (page 30).

System Control Connections
Using a commercially available cord with a mini plug
(3.5 mm dia. with no resistance) to connect this player’s
CONTROL IN jack to the CONTROL OUT jack of
another PIONEER component bearing the Î mark, you
can control the player as though it were a component in
a system (system control).
• If you connect for system control, you cannot operate
the player directly. Point the remote control unit at the
component (AV amplifier, etc.) connected to the
CONTROL OUT jack to operate.
• When controlling as a system, be sure to make a
connection to the amplifier using an audio or video
cord, even when using only digital components.
• For details, refer to the operation manuals of the
connected components.
