Zoom: Enlarges the picture to fill the screen by cropping the sides, top, and bottom to eliminate black bars.
• 480i/480p and SD 4:3 signals: Eliminates top and
bottom bars on anamorphic DVDs with a 2.35:1
aspect ratio.
• 720p, 1080i, SD 16:9, and HD signals: Eliminates
bars added to squarish 4:3 images.
Stretch: Stretches a squarish 4:3 image across the
screen to display the entire image with less distortion
than the Standard format.
Stretch Plus: Similar to Stretch, but minimizes distortion on the sides by expanding the picture to crop off
portions of the top and bottom. Use to adjust the
vertical position of the picture.
Narrow: Displays narrow 4:3 images in their original shape. Adds black side bars to fill the screen.
Wide Expand: Enlarges the picture, cropping the
image on both sides. Removes or reduces black
side bars added to narrow images converted to
16:9 signals for digital broadcast.
Note: All high-definition channels send widescreen (16:9) signals, but not all programming was
created for the widescreen format. The broadcaster may stretch the image or add side bars to
fill the widescreen area.

4. HDMI® Inputs
(High-Definition
Multimedia Interface)
The HDMI inputs support uncompressed standard and
high-definition digital video formats, bitstream Dolby
Digital 5.1, and PCM digital stereo audio. These inputs
are HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection)
compliant.
Mitsubishi recommends you use high-speed HDMI
cables to connect newer source devices incorporating
HDMI technology. High-speed cables bring you the full
benefits of Deep Color and x.v.Color.
These HDMI inputs can also accept
digital DVI video signals.
To connect a device’s DVI
output to the TV’s HDMI

input, use an HDMI-to-DVI
adapter or cable plus an
analog audio. Connect the
audio cable to the

H DMI Cable Categories
HDMI cables are available as Standard and High-Speed
types.
• High-Speed HDMI Cables. Blu-ray players, newer
DVD players, video games, 3D content, and set-top
boxes require High-Speed HDMI cables, suitable
for clock frequencies up to 340 MHz or data rates
of up to 10.2 gigabits per second. Use high-speed
cables for 1080p HD signals carrying extended color
encodings (i.e., 30 or more bits, also called Deep
Color). High-Speed HDMI cables are also suitable for
standard HDTV signals.
• Standard HDMI Cables. Standard HDMI cables
may be unmarked. They are suitable for standard
HDTV 720p, 1080i, and 1080p signals with 8-bit color
depth. Use Standard HDMI cables for clock frequencies up to 74.25 MHz or data rates of up to 2.23
gigabits per second.
5. DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
This output sends Dolby Digital or PCM digital audio
to your digital A/V surround sound receiver. Incoming
analog audio is converted by the TV to PCM digital audio.
If you have a digital A/V receiver, this is the only audio
connection needed between the TV and your A/V receiver.
8. L/R (INPUT 1 and INPUT 2 audio)
Analog stereo inputs for use in conjunction with adjacent composite or component video jacks.
9. Y/
VIDEO
Analog standard-definition video inputs. Use the adjacent R and L inputs if you wish to send audio to the TV
speakers.
(Composite Video)
10. Y/VIDEO Pb Pr (Component Video)
Analog video inputs able to accept high-definition video
from a high-definition source device. Use the adjacent R and L inputs if you wish to send audio to the TV
speakers.
11. IR-EXTERNAL CONTROLLER INPUT
Accepts control signals from an external controller
when set up by your professional installer. The controller should send electronic versions of remote control
commands.
12. 3D GL ASSES EMITTER
Use this jack for the special IR emitter supplied with
some 3D glasses. The emitter sends out an infrared
signal that synchronizes your 3D glasses with the screen
display.
6. DVI/PC INPUT
Connect a DVI device to one of the TV’s HDMI inputs
and use this jack to send analog audio to the TV.
7. AVR AUDIO OUTPUT
Sends analog audio of the current program to an
analog A/V surround sound receiver or stereo system.
Digital audio from digital channels and HDMI devices is
converted to analog audio by the TV for output on this
jack. This is the only audio connection needed to the
TV if using an analog A/V receiver or stereo system.
Note: If connecting headphones, set Sound > Global >
Analog Audio Out to Variable.
13. ANT ( Antenna)
Connect your main antenna or direct cable service
(without a cable box) to
receive digital and analog over-the-air channels from
a VHF/UHF antenna or non-scrambled digital/analog
cable source.
