Question:
Why is my picture not filling the entire screen?
Answer:
Your picture may not be filling your screen due to the aspect ratio. The most noticeable difference between high definition TV (HDTV) and other TVs is the shape of the viewing area, which is defined by the aspect ratio. To adjust the aspect ratio, simply press the # button on your remote control. If it does not correct the issue, check your TV user guide to learn how to adjust aspect ratio.
