Aspect ratio control By TV,
By STU*
For most TVs you should set this to ‘By STU’ (Set-Top Unit), then
select your TV Type and Programme Display preference.
‘By TV’ allows your TV to control how the picture is displayed,
provided that your TV is capable of controlling the picture, and
that the FOXTEL iQ2 is connected to your TV via a component or
composite video lead.

Aspect ratio control has

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.

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.
