Setting aspect ratio of the screen
There are two types of displays: wide screen with an aspect ratio of 16:9 and normal screen
with an aspect ratio of 4:3. Set the aspect ratio according to the display you use.

Some DVDs may not be able to change the TV ASPECT. For details, see the instruction of
the DVD disc.
