What to Expect
Watching TV
Your product allows you to change the format of the picture you’re viewing. Depending on the type of signal
you’re viewing and how it’s being formatted, a different format might not be available. The Format option in the
Setup menu changes the screen format. The options are Normal, Letterbox, Crop, or Squeeze. Go to page 18 for
examples of screen formats.
The ATV/DTV selection in the Setup menu on the remote switches between analog or digital channels. Analog
channels are sent in 4:3 (standard) format. Most digital channels are sent in a 16:9 (widescreen) format. You
might see gray or black bars at the top and bottom of the screen; it depends on how the station is formatting
the video. Change the format setting in the Setup menu for a different format that might eliminate the bars. 4:3
and 16:9 are also known as aspect ratios.
Note: Digital stations in native 4:3 format might not be able to have their format changed. (You’ll see black or
gray bars on the sides of the picture sent as part of the signal from the broadcaster).
