To set the default picture format
Some DVD video discs allow you to choose between the 4:3
(normal television) or 16:9 (widescreen) picture formats.
If you have a standard 4:3 television you also have the choice of
displaying widescreen pictures cropped to fill your television
screen (pan-scan), or with black bars above and below the
picture (letterbox).
● Highlight TV SHAPE in the DISPLAY menu, and press ENTER.
The TV SHAPE menu is displayed:
● Press < or > to select the format of your TV, and press
ENTER (remote).
If you selected 4:3 NORMAL an additional DISPLAY MODE
menu appears:
● Press < or > to select the display mode you want to use for
widescreen videos, and press ENTER.
Note that the pan-scan feature is not available on some discs, in
which case letterbox format will be used.
