Cinema CINEMA Select Cinema to view 2.35
source material in its native
aspect ratio.
With a 16:9 screen and a
non-CineWide projector (no
anamorphic lens), the upper and
lower portions of the screen are
masked, but the geometry of the
active image area is unchanged.
With a 2.35:1 screen and a
CineWide-equipped projector,
the DHD Controller scales the
2.35:1 image so that the active
image area fills the 16:9 chip
surface, eliminating the black
bars. The secondary,
anamorphic lens then restores
the proper geometry to the
2.35:1 image.
Virtual Cinema SVC A 16:9 image is scaled
NON-linearly (more on the sides
than in the center) to fit a 2.35:1
screen.
Virtual Cinema is available only
on CineWide-equipped
projectors.
Native (none) Select Native to display the
source signal in its native
resolution, centered in the
display area with no re-sizing or
overscan.
This means, for example, that
720p HDTV programs will
display with unused pixels on all
sides: 320 on the left and right
sides and 180 above and below.
With SDTV and EDTV sources,
the DHD Controller scales the
image horizontally to achieve a
16:9 aspect ratio.
