Screen format is the way the picture is displayed on your TV. Press the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW button on your
remote to see if a different format is available for the video you are viewing. The format changes as you press the
LEFT/RIGHT ARROW buttons and the format type is displayed at the bottom of the screen.
Analog video is sent in a 4/3 format, which your TV displays in a 16/9 format. Most digital video is sent in a 16/9
format which does fi ll your screen, but sometimes is sent in 4/3 which does not fi ll your screen. It depends on
how the station or device connected to your TV is formatting the video. If there are bars on-screen, press the
LEFT/RIGHT ARROW button to try a different format that may eliminate the bars. If the analog format type is
zoom or panning, use the up or down arrow button to make adjustments to the picture and/or eliminate the bars.
Listed below are the different formats available and what they look like.
