...notes on wide screen features
Various broadcast stations now transmit movies and programmes in true wide screen
format. Your TV detects these signals and automatically switches your TV to the correct
viewing format. However, some broadcasters do not transmit this automatic sensing signal,
and so your TV will not recognize which format is being transmitted. Your viewing format
can be selected manually by simply pressing the key on your handset to scroll through
the viewing format options. See the examples below for the available viewing formats.

The Auto format is also one which can be selected manually.
Auto mode automatically detects various screen formats that are transmitted in
either conventional (4:3) or wide screen (16:9 or 14:9) format. After detecting
which signal is being transmitted, the TV will automatically switch to the correct
screen ratio.

The 4:3 broadcast signal gives
black bars to the sides of the
screen which is consistent with
screen compression.
The 14:9L format is the
medium between the 4:3 and
16:9 ratio signals.
