[. . . ] This may alter the projected aspect, depending upon the original aspect of the source image. Anamorphic is most suitable for images which are already in a 16:9 aspect, like high definition TV, as it displays them without aspect alteration. The 4:3 setting is most suitable for 4:3 images like standard definition TV and 4:3 aspect DVD movies, as it displays them without aspect alteration. The Letter Box setting resizes an image proportionately both vertically and horizontally to the width of a 16:9 aspect and centers it onscreen. This produces an image greater in height than can be displayed, so part of the image is lost (not displayed) along the top and bottom edges of the projection. This is suitable for the display of movies which are presented in letterbox format (with black bars top and bottom). The Wide setting stretches the image horizontally in a non-linear manner, that is, the edges of the image are stretched more than the centre of the image, to prevent distortion of the central part of the image. This is suitable for occasions where you want to stretch the width of a 4:3 aspect image to the width of a 16:9 aspect screen. Some widescreen movies have been produced with their width squashed down to the width of a 4:3 aspect, and are best viewed when restretched back to their original width using the Wide setting. The Real setting displays the image in a one-to-one pixel mapping without alteration or resize in the centre of the projection. This is most suitable for use with PC and RGBHD source inputs. 3.
