4.3.2 TV Aspect
You can use this menu item to tell the BD player whether you have a very rectangular shaped,
16:9-aspect ratio television set, or a more traditional, almost square 4:3 aspect-ratio television set.
To inform the BD player of your TV's aspect ratio, press the up/down arrow keys (_'_) on the remote until
the TV Aspect choice in the center of the setup screen is highlighted. Then, press the right arrow key (:_)
on the remote until the rightmost portion of the setup screen is highlighted.
The up/down arrow keys (_) on the remote can then be used to select your TV's aspect ratio.
If your TV has a very rectangular (16:9) aspect ratio, you will need to choose one of the 16:9 aspect
ratios (full or pillarboxed).
If your TV has an "old fashioned" (relatively square) (4:3) aspect ratio, you will need to choose one
of the 4:3 aspect ratios (letterboxed or pan/scan).
Your preference should be based on whether the disk you will be watching contains a movie in
widescreen format, or has been cropped to fit a "standard" 4:3 screen, as well as your individual
preference for viewing, as shown in the table below:
