Letterbox and Compression modes
The Letterbox and Compression modes display the wide picture
(16:9) with bars at top and bottom. The picture retains its true
proportion.

Letterbox (recommended mode):

• The picture is vertically compressed, with gray bars at top and

bottom.

• The picture quality is lower than in the Compression mode

because of a reduction in the scanning lines.

• There is a slightly lower chance of permanently engraining

stationary patterns in the picture tube than in Compression mode
because there is a small amount of raster in the bars at the top
and bottom.

Compression:

• The picture is vertically compressed, with black bars at the top

and bottom.

• The exact image is reproduced and the picture quality is better

because of more effective use of scanning lines.

• There is a greater chance of permanently engraining stationary

patterns in the picture tube than in the Letterbox mode, since
there is no raster in the bars at the top and bottom.

NOTICE OF POSSIBLE ADVERSE

EFFECTS ON TV PICTURE TUBE

Avoid displaying stationary images on
your TV screen for extended periods of
time. Fixed (non-moving) images (such
as still PIP/POP windows or black/gray
bars in wide-screen picture or PIP/POP
formats) can become permanently
engrained in the picture tube. This type
of damage is NOT COVERED BY
YOUR WARRANTY because it is the
result of misuse. See item 32 on page 4.
