Select the aspect ratio The "Aspect Ratio" is the ratio of the image width against image height. It is 4:3 for most analog TVs and computers, and 16:9 for digital TVs and DVDs. With the emergence of digital signal processing, digital display equipment such as projectors can dynamically stretch the images and display the outputted images with a ratio different from that of the inputted image signals. Change projected image aspect ratio (for any signal source): 1. Connect to the signal source, then press the [Setting] key and enter the menu to open the Advanced > Aspect Ratio menu. 2. Press / and select an aspect ratio matching the video signal format that meets your display requirements. About the aspect ratio Choose how to make the screen suitable for the screen: 1. Auto: Proportional scaling of an image to fit the projector's natural resolution in its horizontal width. This is suitable where the incoming image is neither in 4:3 nor 16:9 aspect ratios but where you want to make most use of the screen without altering the image's aspect ratio.

This is most suitable for 4:3 pictures such as those for computer monitors, standard definition TV, and 4:3 aspect DVD movies as these can be displayed without aspect alteration. 3. 16:9: Scales a picture so that it is displayed in the center of the screen with a 16:9 aspect ratio. This is most suitable for images which are already in a 16:9 aspect such as high definition TV because as these can be displayed without aspect alteration.

Native: The image is projected as its original resolution, and resized to fit within the display area. For input signals with lower resolutions, the projected image will display smaller than if resized to full screen. 37

The “Aspect Ratio” is the ratio of the image width against image height. It is 4:3 for most
analog TVs and computers, and 16:9 for digital TVs and DVDs. With the emergence of
digital signal processing, digital display equipment such as projectors can dynamically
stretch the images and display the outputted images with a ratio different from that of the
inputted image signals. Change projected image aspect ratio (for any signal source):
1.
Connect to the signal source, then press the [Setting] key and enter the menu to
