To adjust the following five settings, highlight the setting, press Select, use
the up and down arrows to adjust the values, then press select to confirm
the changes. All menu defaults are listed in a table starting on page 28.
Keystone : adjusts the image vertically to make a squarer image.
Contrast : controls the degree of difference between the lightest and darkest
parts of the picture and changes the amount of black and white in the
image.
Brightness : changes the intensity of the image.
Color : (video sources only) adjusts a video image from black and white to
fully saturated color.
Tint : (NTSC video sources only) adjusts the red-green color balance in the
image.
Aspect Ratio : Aspect ratio is the ratio of the image width to image height.
TV screens are usually 1.33:1, also known as 4:3. HDTV and most DVDs are
1.78:1, or 16:9. You can choose Native, 4:3, 16:9, Letterbox, or Natural Wide.
The default is 16:9. The goal is to show the most detail on the screen while
preserving the ratio of width to height. The native resolution of the projec-
tor is 1280x720. Use Native, 4:3 or Natural Wide for 4:3 input sources; use
Native, 16:9 or Letterbox for 16:9 input. Pressing the Resize button on the
remote cycles through these options.
Native : this mode bypasses the internal scaler, displaying the image with no
resizing. Since the native resolution is 1280x720 and 4x3 video images are
approximately 640x480, 4x3 images will always be smaller than the display
and will be centered in the display. Computer images 1024x768 or smaller
will also be centered in the display. If a 16x9 video source or a 1280x1024 or
larger computer source is viewed, it will display up to 1280 pixels and 720
lines from the center of the input. 16:9: the default is 16:9, which preserves
the 16:9 aspect ratio and is designed to be used with content that is
Enhanced for Widescreen TVs. 4:3: resizes the image from its original ver-
sion to fit a standard 4:3 aspect ratio screen. If you have a 4:3 source on a
16:9 screen, the image is placed in a 16:9 space, so black bars appear at the
sides of the image. Letterbox: preserves the 16:9 aspect ratio. If you have a
16:9 source and screen, the image fills the screen. If your source is letter-
boxed, the image is expanded to fill the screen. Natural Wide: this mode
stretches a 4:3 image to fill the entire 16:9 screen. The center two-thirds of
the image is unchanged; the edges of the image are stretched. The mode is
only available when TrueLife is active (see page 14).
