NORMAL/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.
NORMAL/PS (Pan & Scan)
NORMAL/LB (Letterbox)
NORMAL/LB – Choose 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.
WIDE – Choose this setting if your DVD/VCP 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.
