Various broadcast stations now transmit movies and programs 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
recognise 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.
This broadcast is a wide
screen picture format.
This type of picture fills
the entire TV screen.
The 14:9 format is the
medium between the 4:3
and 16:9 ratio signals.
The 4:3 broadcast signal
gives black bars to the
sides of the screen which
is consistent with screen
compression.
