Changing the picture format…

In some cases, picture format infor-
mation is missing or not updated, this
makes it impossible for BeoVision
Avant to detect the picture format
automatically. You can then activate
the ‘format optimise’ function to let
BeoVision Avant select the most
suitable format. The selected picture
format depends on the type of picture
currently shown.

If you still wish to change the picture
format, you can switch between
options within the selected format
group, move the picture up or down,
or even switch to a different format
group altogether.

The BeoVision Avant display will show
you which format group has been
selected.

Once you are satisfied with the picture
format, press EXIT to leave the picture
format function. Make sure, though,
that information, such as subtitles, still
remain visible in the format you
choose.

Picture formats and recordings…
Video tape recordings will usually be shown in the
15:9 format. If ”noise” appears around the
picture, you may have to change the picture to
e.g. the 14:9 format which lets the BeoVision
Avant curtains hide this ”noise”.
