There are black bars at the top and bottom of the image. What should I do?

  • Try the following:
    • Press the ASP (Aspect) button on the remote control to select a different aspect ratio setting. See Adjusting the Aspect Ratio.
    • If you're watching a movie released in a theatrical widescreen format (such as 1.85:1 or 2.35:1), you must display it with black bars at the top and bottom if you want to see the whole image because high-definition TVs and home entertainment systems use the slightly narrower 16:9 (1.78:1) aspect ratio.
