Optimizing video images
After the video device is connected properly and the image is on the screen,
you can optimize the image using the onscreen menus. For general informa-
tion on using the menus, see page 27.
• Adjust the Keystone, Contrast, Brightness, Color, or Tint in the Picture
menu. See page 28.
• Change the Aspect ratio. Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to

and most DVDs are 1.78:1, or 16:9. Choose the option that best fits your
input source. See page 28.

• Adjust the Color Temperature. Select a listed value, or select User and
individually adjust the intensity of the red, green, and blue color. See
page 29.
