Most analog TV and computers are in 4:3 ratio, which is the default for this projector, and digital TV and DVDs are usually in 16:9 ratio. With the advent of digital signal processing, digital display devices like this projector can dynamically stretch and scale the image output to a different aspect than that of the image input signal. To change the projected image ratio (no matter what aspect the source is): 1. Press Menu/Exit and then press / until the DISPLAY menu is highlighted. Press / to select an aspect ratio to suit the format of the video signal and your display requirements.
