7.3.1 Selecting the Correct Aspect Ratio
You can configure the aspect ratio of any output image to fit your application. The
VP-734 offers six different aspect ratio settings: Best Fit, Letterbox, Follow Output,
Virtual Wide, Follow Input, and Custom. Here is how each of these settings works.
BEST FIT – This setting re-sizes the video or graphics
input signal to “best fit” the output resolution while
maintaining the aspect ratio of the input signal. For
example, a composite video signal (4:3 aspect ratio) will
“best fit” to the top and bottom of a widescreen output
image, resulting in black pillars on either side.
LETTERBOX – This setting compresses the top and
bottom edges of the input signal, but fills the width of
the screen. For example, to preserve a widescreen
film image on a 4:3 display. When not using a 4:3
monitor, this mode is identical to Best Fit
FOLLOW OUTPUT – The aspect ratio and resolution
of the input signal is re-sized to precisely match the
aspect ratio and resolution of the VP-734 output
signal. This may result in some distortion to the input
signal image
VIRTUAL WIDE – The input signal is stretched
horizontally to fit the width of a widescreen output
image from the VP-734. This setting is used to
expand anamorphic (horizontally compressed) video
images from DVDs
FOLLOW INPUT – The aspect ratio and resolution of
the input video or graphics signal are both preserved.
For example, a composite video image with a 4:3
aspect ratio will appear with the same aspect ratio on
a 1080p (16:9) output image, surrounded by black
bars
CUSTOM – Use this menu to define a custom aspect
ratio by adjusting the output image horizontal size
(width) and vertical size (height)
