TV TYPE controls the aspect ratio (height to width) of the picture on
the screen. See the below for a description of different screen
formats.
4:3 PS Choose this setting if you want the movie to fill the
entire screen. This might mean that parts of the picture (the left
and right edges) won’t be seen.
Most discs produced in a widescreen format can’t be cropped in
this fashion. This means the black bars will appear at the top and
the bottom of the screen.
16:9 – Choose this setting if your TV/DVD player is
connected to a widescreen TV. If you choose this setting
and you don’t have a widescreen TV, the images on the
screen may appear distorted due to vertical
compression.
If you play a disc recorded in 4 x 3 format on a
widescreen TV, the left and right side of the screen will
appear black.

4:3 LBChoose this setting if you want to see movies in their
original aspect ratio (height-to-width ratio). You’ll see the entire
frame of the movie, but it will take up a smaller portion of the
screen vertically. The movie might appear with black bars at the
top and bottom of the screen.
