Shown below is a standard-definition signal with 4:3 aspect ratio. The picture is fine with the Normal mode, but not as good as the high-definition signal. When a standard-definition signal is viewed in the Zoom or Wide Zoom mode, you can enjoy an enlarged picture on your TV screen, but picture quality may vary.
