16:9 Programme Display (setting for standard TVs)
This setting controls how widescreen (16:9) programmes display
on a ‘standard’ (4:3) TV. This item is only available if your TV Type is
standard (4:3) (see page 69).
Centre Cut The centre portion only of any widescreen (16:9)
transmissions will display.
14:9 You see a wider portion of a widescreen (16:9)
transmission than with ‘centre cut-out’, but you do not
see the entire picture. The picture does not fill the screen.
Letter Box The whole of any widescreen transmissions will display,
but black bars will appear at the top and bottom of the
screen.
4:3 Programme Display (setting for widescreen TVs)
This setting controls how ‘standard’ 4:3 programmes display on a
widescreen (16:9) TV. This item is only available if your TV Type is
widescreen (16:9) (see page 69).
Pillar Box The whole of the picture displays, as if it were on a
standard TV, with black bars at either side of the picture.
14:9 The picture displays slightly enlarged, so it fills more
of the screen, but is slightly cropped at the top and
bottom. Note: some programmes are transmitted in a
14:9 format, with black borders included at the top and
bottom. In this case, only the transmitted borders are
cropped so you do not lose any of the TV picture.
Stretch The whole of the picture displays, stretched sideways to
fill your TV screen.
