OPERATION - Configuring Your Receiver.
WIDESCREEN
TV sets are available with screens of the standard
(4:3) format and widescreen (16:9) format. When
you first installed your HDB60 receiver you
specified the format of the connected TV (this can
now be altered if necessary; see Section 3 -
ADVANCED OPERATION - Configuring Your
Receiver).
Digital terrestrial television broadcasts are also made
in both standard and widescreen formats. In
particular, films and dramas tend to be broadcast
in widescreen format to closer emulate the cinema
experience, but even some news bulletins are
widescreen. To help get the most from both TV set
and programme when a widescreen film is watched
on a standard TV, or a standard broadcast is viewed
on a widescreen set, the HDB60 receiver includes
the [WIDE] key.
So long as the receiver has been correctly set up
for the TV set connected, a widescreen programme
will always be displayed correctly on a widescreen
set, and a standard format programme will correctly
fill the screen of a standard format TV.
With a widescreen TV set displaying a standard
format programme, the [WIDE] key switches
between displaying the picture with black bars down
the sides, and enlarging the picture so that it fills the
whole width of the screen but the top and bottom are
cropped off.
With a standard format TV displaying a widescreen
programme, the [WIDE] key switches between
displaying the picture with black bars at the top and
bottom of the screen, and filling the whole height of
the screen but cropping the sides off according to
instructions broadcast with the programme (called
'pan and scan').
The effect of the [WIDE] key on the picture display
is cancelled by pressing [WIDE] again, changing
channel or turning the receiver to standby.
