Normal will display a 4:3 picture at its standard 4:3
size. For 1080i and 720p video signals, a picture will
be displayed at 16:9 size.
Zoom will magnify the entire 4:3 picture to fill the
screen, with no horizontal elongation to fill the screen,
as more of the top and bottom are cut off. Use this
mode to view letterboxed 4:3 picture content to get a
widescreen picture. A 16:9 picture will be magnified
similarly, but to a lesser extent.
Full will display a 4:3 picture at a 16:9 size, with
horizontal elongation necessary to fill the screen.
Wide will display a 4:3 picture at a 16:9 size, with less
horizontal elongation necessary to fill the screen
because a little bit of the top and bottom will be cut off.
Each time you change the screen mode, the
name of the selected mode is displayed on the
screen for a few seconds.
The SCREEN MODE button switches between
the screen modes in the following pattern.
NOTE:
• When switching the input signal, the audio mute
turns ON temporarily.
•You can only select the "Normal" and "Zoom"
screen modes for 1080i and 720p video signals
connected to the COMPONENT terminals.
