Adjust A Tv To View Wide Screen With Non Hd Channels

Adjust a TV to View Wide Screen With Non HD Channels


Enjoying high-definition television is one of the benefits that comes with a new HDTV, but all channels don't broadcast in HD, leaving the wide-screen real estate on your television to be occupied by those unsightly black bars. This guide will show you adjust your television's aspect ratio so that non-HD channels utilize the entire screen.


Instructions


Adjusting the Picture on YourTtelevision


1. Power on your television and tune in to a non-HD channel. If you have cable or satellite service, these channels are usually listed separately and easily identifiable from their HD counterparts.


2. Locate the "P.Size," "Picture Zoom," "HD Zoom" or similar button on your television's remote control.


3. Press the button and note the television's display as it cycles through the different options for your television. The television usually cycles through 4:3, 16:9, Zoom 1 and Zoom 2 and is different depending on the make and model of your television. This is essentially changing the aspect ratio for your non-HD channels.


4. Leave the television on the setting for 16:9. This will convert all images received by your television into the wide-screen format if the channel does not broadcast in HD.
