Ratio

Use to switch between Full Screen, 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios.

As the V-LCD51-HDA monitor has a native resolution of 800 x 480 RGB pixels, incoming images are automatically

scaled to fit the screen:

• In Full Screen mode, images are scaled to fill the entire screen (800 x 480).

• In 4:3 mode, images are scaled to fill the center 4:3 portion of the screen (640 x 480). With a 16:9 source, images

will be centered with a black letter-box added on the left and right sides.

• In 16:9 mode, images are scaled to a 16:9 portion of the screen (800 x 450), with a black letter-box added top and

bottom.

Note: The aspect ratio setting is ignored when Pixel-to-Pixel mode is enabled.

Pixel-to-Pixel Mode

Use this setting to enable Pixel-to-Pixel mode. You have the option of viewing the center 800 x 480 (Centered Pixel-

to-Pixel mode) or selecting any 800 x 480 area on the screen (User Pixel-to-Pixel mode). The User Pixel-to-Pixel

option is not available when the incoming image is 800 x 480 or lower - only the Centered Pixel-to-Pixel mode can be

used in this case.

This Pixel-to-Pixel mode bypasses the monitor’s internal scaling function and displays incoming images in their native

resolution and aspect ratio, with a one-to-one mapping:

• For incoming formats smaller than the native resolution of the LCD panel (800 x 480), the image will be displayed

in the center of the screen using only the necessary LCD pixels. For example, NTSC images will occupy exactly

720 x 480 pixels. The surrounding pixels will be black.

• For incoming formats exceeding 800 x 480 pixels, only the center 800 x 480 of the incoming image will displayed

occupying the whole screen, with the remainder of the picture cropped. For example, 1080i formats will both be

cropped to 800 x 480 and displayed full-screen.
