how the program was originally recorded and the method used to broadcast the
program, you may find that displaying certain programs in a specific picture
format provides the picture quality you prefer.
Note: For details on setting your 8000HD to use more than one picture format
setting, see “Selecting Picture Formats With the Setup Wizard” on page 8.
Follow these steps to change the picture format.

you to select.
