How to Set TV Aspect Ratio
This feature allows you to configure the player to provide
the correct video mode to match your Monitor/TV. The
width to height screen dimension of a 4:3 Aspect Ratio
Monitor/TV match the screen size requirements of videos
as well as conventional TV signals. A Monitor/TV with a
16:9 Aspect Ratio will fill its screen with an entire Wide
Screen video. Once the TV Aspect Ratio is set, it should
not be changed. Make changes only if a Monitor/TV with a
different Aspect Ratio is used.
Note: If a disc is loaded, the player must be in STOP mode
before any SETUP operation can occur.
