The FORMAT Key and Picture Shape
Important
Black bars at the edges of the
picture are common in HD
pictures. Black bars are not a
defect of the TV.
Black bars are added by broad-•
casters to fill the 16:9 screen
area while preserving the original
aspect ratio of the picture.
Your cable box or satellite •
receiver may also be altering
the broadcast picture. If your
receiver offers output in native
format, try using it with Mitsubi-
