Setting the display options on the PROMASTER MediaTube HD
The MediaTube
HD
allows you to select your preferred method of displaying your pictures. Your
MediaTube
HD
comes set from the factory to display your photos in their original native aspect
ratio. In other words you will see the entire photograph on your HDTV screen without stretching or
magnifying the photo. This means you may see grey or black bars on the left and right of your
photo. If you prefer to fill your HDTV screen with your photos there are two options available.
In the Display section of the setup menu you can choose either Original (Default) or Optimal.
Choosing the Optimal setting will enlarge your photos to fill the entire screen on your HDTV.
Because the photos are enlarged, you will not be able to see a small amount of the top and
bottom of your image. To choose Optimal, press the Exit key from the slide show mode on the
remote control or on the device, then press the Setup menu button from the remote or the Menu
button on the device. Navigate to the Display option, press Select, choose Optimal, press Select,
and then press the Exit key to Exit the Setup menu.
You may also fill the screen of your HDTV by choosing to display your photos in the 16:9
(stretched) display mode of your HDTV. This mode will show your entire photo however is will be
stretched to fit the entire display area of your HDTV. Since this mode alters the natural aspect
ratio of your photographs, faces may look wider and less natural than in the Original or Optimal
modes. To select the 16:9 mode, with the MediaTube
HD
at the startup splash screen use the
16:9 button on the remote control to toggle between standard and 16:9 (stretched) display
modes.
