USING EXTERNAL SOURCES

You may use optional external video games, camcorders, and other

portable video units by connecting the unit to the auxiliary RCA input

jacks on the unit. You must remove the cover to access the jacks, and

press SOURCE or MODE to select “AUX 1.”

Red — Right channel audio input

White — Left channel audio input

Yellow — Video input

To use an external game system, a 12VDC to 110VAC power inverter,

available at most electronic retail stores, is often required.

Note: If you want to watch non-widescreen, 4:3 images, press

the DISPLAY button on the remote control until “STANDARD”

is displayed on the screen. This will properly size the image,

instead of stretching the image across the wide screen. In

“STANDARD” mode, you will see black bars on the sides of the

image, like this:

Motion picture ﬁlm and cameras, and later tele-

vision screens, were originally designed around

a screen size that was almost square - it was

one-third wider than it was high (another way to

say this is that it had a width-to-height ratio, or

aspect ratio, of 4:3. This ratio, 4:3, can also be

expressed as 1.66:1.)

When widescreen movies using technologies

like Cinemascope and Panavision became

popular, new aspect ratios were used for them

- 1.78:1, 2.35:1, and even 2.55:1. When high-

deﬁnition television was developed, a screen

shape of 16:9, or 1.85:1, was selected as the

best compromise for viewing widescreen movie

images.

When you watch widescreen movies on a

standard 4:3 television, there are “black bars”

on the top and bottom of the screen. This is

often called a “letterbox” image. The alternative

is called “pan-and-scan,” where the edges of the

image are “cropped” off.

This system uses a widescreen 16:9, or 1.85:1

display - the same aspect ratio as high- deﬁni-

tion televisions. This means that when viewing

widescreen DVDs, these black bars are either

non-existent, or greatly minimized.
