    Why is my Acer X1226AH image stretched when displaying a widescreen DVD?
    • G
      Gregory WuAug 26, 2025
      When playing a DVD encoded in anamorphic or 16:9 aspect ratio, you may need to adjust settings. If you play a 4:3 format DVD title, change the format to 4:3 in the projector OSD. If the image remains stretched, adjust the aspect ratio to 16:9 (wide) on your DVD player. For a Letterbox (LBX) format DVD title, change the format to Letterbox (LBX) in the projector OSD.
