Before we come to the point, there is a need to understand what a widescreen is.
Widescreen images are a variety of aspect ratios used in film, television and computer screens. For television, the original screen ratio for broadcasts was 4:3 (1.33:1). In the late 2000s, 16:9 (1.78:1) TV displays came into wide use. They are typically used in conjunction with high-definition television (HDTV) receivers, or Standard-Definition (SD) DVD players and other digital television sources.
In recent years, widescreen TV has already dominated the television market. Some well-known brands include Samsung, Vizio, LG, Sony, Panasonic, Sharp, Toshiba, Philips, Sanyo, JVC, Hisense, TCL, Apex, Supersonic, and Skyworth.
At the mention of widescreen TV, it's natural for us to think of flat-screen TV. Indeed, the vast majority of flat-screen TV is widescreen.
We can always find the DVD disc born the imprint of ”16:9”, “4:3 Letterbox”, “4:3 Pan & Scan” on the back cover. Most of the people know that the numbers stand for screen formats, but which one should be selected for playing movie on TV?
In general, the widescreen TV screen always adopts 16:9 aspect ratio, with the function of stretching picture vertically or horizontally. So, flat-screen televisions will automatically stretch the picture into 16:9 widescreen sight, after receiving the widescreen-deforming signals coming from DVD. Compare to the 4 X 3(namely the full screen DVD), the 16 X 9(the widescreen DVD) is like a wide angle lens.
Having black bars on the top and bottom when you playback a DVD or Blu-Ray movie on your widescreen TV is normal. If the original format is 4:3, dispatch its into 16:9, image will be stretched while you don't actually lose any of the image.
In order to preserve the original aspect ratio, the video will insert black bars on the top and bottom of the image. DVDs which say widescreen or 16:9 format simply mean that the video on the disc is encoded for playback on widescreen TVs as opposed to 4:3 TVs, but that doesn't necessarily mean there won't be black bars in the encoded video.
We've put a great deal of time effort into this project. You are always going to have a black strip on top and bottom of your screen, while there is no selection in the flat-screen DVD player for it completely fills the screen. Therefore, if you want to get a better visual experience when playing DVD on widescreen TV, some adjustment on your DVD movie is necessary.
