The aspect ratio of the screen is wrong (picture vertically expanded) when you play a wide picture even though you set “TV DISPLAY” in the SETUP menu to "16:9".
* If you connect the system with the SCART cable, connect directly to the TV. Otherwise the auto-switch function of the aspect ratio for the TV may not work.
* If the TV is not connected with a SCART cable to the HS, or if the auto-switch function does not work you should turn the TV to "16:9" (if possible with your TV).
* Depending on the TV, you may not be able to change the aspect ratio. In that case (TV not adjustable to 16:9) do not select "16:9" in the TV Display. Then, no change of the aspect ratio is needed.
