Image information may be stated on the DVD
case. Some DVDs support both formats
described below.
Anamorphic (or Enhanced for WideScreen TV)

images properly on 16:9 TV sets using the TV’s
Standard format mode (recommended).
Non-Anamorphic (or 4:3, 1.33:1, Letter Box, or

ish TV screens. They may be full screen (4:3 or
1.33:1) which crops movies to fit the narrow TV, or

Picture Shape and Display Formats
Format Definitions
Note: See page 16 for use of the
FORMAT
key to apply
the formats described here.
Standard: The full-screen format used by HDTV
signals. Use this format to display anamorphic DVDs
with a 1.78:1 or 1.85:1 aspect ratio. Anamorphic DVDs
with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio are displayed correctly but
with top and bottom black bars. Squarish (4:3) images
are stretched evenly from side to side. Available for all
signals.
Expand: Enlarges the picture to fill the screen by
cropping the top and bottom; useful for reducing the
letter box top and bottom bars of non-anamorphic DVD
images.
Zoom: Enlarges the picture to fill the screen by crop-
ping the sides, top, and bottom to eliminate black bars.
• 480i/480p and SD 4:3 signals: Eliminates top and
bottom bars on anamorphic DVDs with a 2.35:1
aspect ratio.
• 720p, 1080i, SD 16:9, and HD signals: Eliminates
bars added to squarish 4:3 images.
Stretch: Stretches a squarish 4:3 image across the
screen to display the entire image with less distortion
than the Standard format.
Stretch Plus: Similar to Stretch, but minimizes distor-
tion on the sides by expanding the picture to crop off
portions of the top and bottom. Use
to adjust the
vertical position of the picture.
Narrow: Displays narrow 4:3 images in their origi-
nal shape. Adds black side bars to fill the screen.
Wide Expand: Enlarges the picture, cropping the
image on both sides. Removes or reduces black
side bars added to narrow images converted to
16:9 signals for digital broadcast.
Note: All high-definition channels send wide-
screen (16:9) signals, but not all programming was
created for the widescreen format. The broad-
caster may stretch the image or add side bars to
fill the widescreen area.
