Adjust Screen Shape and Aspect Ratio
High-definition and standard-definition signals are transmitted with different aspect
ratios (the width-to-height ratio of the image). Most HD signals use a wide screen aspect
ratio of 16:9. The 16:9 fills your BRAVIA screen, maintaining a crisp, clear, vivid picture.
Most standard-definition signals use a boxy 4:3 aspect ratio. When a 4:3 image is
displayed on an HDTV, you will see black bars on the sides. The picture quality may
not be as sharp as with HD sources.
