About the aspect ratio
• In the pictures below, the black portions are inactive areas and the white portions are active areas.
• OSD menus can be displayed on those unused black areas.
1. Auto
:
Scales an image proportionally to fit the
projector's native resolution in its horizontal or
vertical width. This is suitable for the incoming
image which is neither in 4:3 nor 16:9 and you want
to make most use of the screen without altering
the image's aspect ratio.
2. Real
:
The image is projected as its original
resolution, and resized to fit within the display area.
For input signals with lower resolutions, the
projected image will display smaller than if resized
to full screen. You could adjust the zoom setting or
move the projector towards the screen to increase
the image size if necessary. You may also need to
refocus the projector after making these
adjustments.
3. 4:3: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the
center of the screen with a 4:3 aspect ratio. This is
most suitable for 4:3 images like some computer
monitors, standard definition TV and 4:3 aspect
DVD movies, as it displays them without aspect
alteration.
4. 16:9: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the
center of the screen with a 16:9 aspect ratio. This is
most suitable for images which are already in a 16:9
aspect, like high definition TV, as it displays them
without aspect alteration.
5. 16:10: Scales an image so that it is displayed in the
center of the screen with a 16:10 aspect ratio. This
is most suitable for images which are already in a
16:10 aspect, as it displays them without aspect
alteration.
