Selecting the picture size

TheaterWide 3, and Full.
The way the image displays in any of the picture sizes will vary

Select the picture size that displays the current program the
way that looks best to you.
Your picture size preferences can be saved for each input on
your TV.

be “grayed out” in the Picture Size screen).
