VIZIO VM190XVT/VM230XVT User Manual Wide Select how the picture displays on the screen. As you select an option, you will see the screen adjusting to the different sizes. The options vary depending on the selected input and the TV program: Normal Mode The original 4:3 aspect ratio (1.33:1 source) is preserved, so black bars are added to the left and right of the display image. Standard TV broadcasts are displayed with a 4:3 Aspect Ratio. Movies in 4:3 Aspect Ratio may be referred to as pan-and-scan or full frame. These movies were originally filmed in 16:9 (widescreen), and then modified to fit a traditional TV screen (4:3). Full Full mode allows you to view the entire picture. Recommended for HDMI and RGB / Computer viewing so you can see the complete picture without the image overstretching beyond the viewing area. If you experience "noise" along the border switch to Zoom 1. For 720p, 1080i, 1080p only. Stretch Mode When watching a widescreen program (1.78:1 source) with black bars on the sides, the display image will stretch to fill the TV screen. People will appear wider than they really are. If you are watching a widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1 source) program or movie, there will still be black bars at the top and bottom. This mode is available only when watching a widescreen program. Panoramic Mode When watching a standard broadcast or full frame movie in this mode, the 4:3 Aspect Ratio (1.33:1 source) display image is stretched horizontally on the left and right sides to fill the TV screen. The center of the image is not stretched. 28 www.VIZIO.com
