    Aspect Ratio
    RCVHDSource 
    SpecificUse this sub-menu to select an aspect ratio setting for the 
    projected image.
    Input Source: RGB or HDMI (PC)
    Normal*:
    Projects at the projector’s maximum possible size while 
    maintaining the input signal aspect ratio.
    Full:
    Projects at the projector’s maximum possible size by enlarging 
    or reducing the input signal.
    4:3 (XJ-A241/XJ-A246/XJ-A251/XJ-A256 only):
    Regardless of the input signal aspect ratio, the image is always 
    resized to an aspect ratio of 4:3 for projection.
    True (XJ-A241/XJ-A246/XJ-A251/XJ-A256 only):
    Projects the input signal at its actual size (1 input source dot 
    equal to one projector output pixel dot) in the center of the 
    projector’s projection screen. If the input signal resolution 
    exceeds the projector’s output resolution, the excess is cut off.
    Input Source: Video, Component or HDMI 
    (DTV)
    Normal*:
    Projects at the projector’s maximum possible size while 
    maintaining the input signal aspect ratio.
    16:9 :
    This setting specifies a 16:9 aspect ratio, which is the same as a 
    movie screen, high-definition TV, etc. Using this setting when 
    the input signal is a 16:9 image that has been squeezed to a 4:3 
    image causes the image to be displayed with its normal 16:9 
    aspect ratio.
    4:3 (XJ-A241/XJ-A246/XJ-A251/XJ-A256 only):
    Regardless of the input signal aspect ratio, the image is always 
    resized to an aspect ratio of 4:3 for projection.
    Letter Box (XJ-A241/XJ-A246/XJ-A251/XJ-A256 only):
    This will resize the image horizontally to 1280 dots and project 
    800 vertical dots of the center of the image, maintaining the 
    aspect ratio of the input signal.
    NotezWhen projecting while “True” is selected as the aspect 
    ratio setting for an RGB signal with a resolution that is 
    less than SVGA, the image is enlarged to SVGA and 
    projected.
    zFor details about projection screen display conditions for 
    different aspect ratio settings, see “Aspect Ratio Setting 
    and Projection Image” (page 51).
