4 x 3 Letterbox – Choose this setting when receiving a 4:3 image with subtitles ON. You’ll see the entire frame of the movie, but it will take up a
smaller portion of the screen vertically to accommodate subtitles. The movie might appear with black bars at the top and bottom of the screen.
4 x 3 Standard – Choose this setting when receiving a 4:3 image and you want the on-screen appearance of the video to be a centered picture
with black side panels (blank area) on the right and left sides. Most discs produced in a widescreen format can’t be cropped in this fashion. This
means the black bars appear at the top and bottom of the screen.
16 x 9 Standard – Choose this setting to view 16:9 formatted DVD’s. Most DVD’s will force the viewing to this mode. Also choose this if you
want a 4:3 image to adjust horizontally to fill the 16:9 screen. Black side panels won’t be added, and the image is vertically unaltered.

• Angle Indicator – When turned on, displays camera angle icon if more than one camera angle is available.
• Scene Again™ Text – When turned on, displays subtitles when you use the Scene Again™ feature.
The default is to show all on-screen displays. To turn one of the options on or off, highlight an option and press OK. This toggles the option on or off.
