Screen Formats
Screen format is the way the picture is displayed on your TV. Press the ZOOM +/- 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 ZOOM 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 ZOOM +/- 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.
