About Copyrights
• When using the RESIZE function to select an image size with a different aspect ratio to a TV program or video 
image, the image will look different from its original appearance. Keep this in mind while choosing an image 
size.
• The use of the RESIZE, Subtitle, or Overscan function to compress or stretch the image for commercial 
purposes/public displays in a café, hotel, etc. may be an infringement of copyright protected by law for 
copyright holders. Please use caution.
• While watching non-widescreen images (4:3), if you use the RESIZE function to fi ll the screen or use the 
Overscan function to change the aspect ratio of a fi xed-ratio input signal, parts of the outer edge of the image 
will be cut off or distorted. To watch original images as the producers intended, set “RESIZE” to “SIDE BAR” 
and Overscan to its default setting.
