Can someone who owns this device ....please confirm or deny that this will do ONLY 4:3 or will it do HD 16:9 (widescreen as well)

Im sorry. Anamorphic is the 3rd view. Not panoramic. My bad. I just went back and checked because I thought there was 4 settings. There is 16:9, 4:3, auto and anamorphic settings. Hope this helps.

Actually, no. It won't. Technically, it will take the 16:9 and toss it inside of the 4:3 box (which is its native ratio). You can then make adjustments to make it larger in order to compensate.Honestly, you're better off going with a higher quality projector. This one was terrible. I returned it. Spent twice as much but was 10x happier.

It will do both as well as panorama view which is no different than standard full screen in my opinion. I had it playing at 177" in 16:9 and it was really clear.

It looks as good as a non-HDTV. From the few times I've looked at SD tv though, it doesn't utilize widescreen (It's still 4:3 rather than 16:9). So that's something you might want to think about.

The screen is an XWGA++ which means that it has can do 16:9 widescreen format and also 1600x900 resolution. It is is not a True HD screen as it can't handle 1080p but only 720p. Also the connector is on the right hand side on the screen on the back near the middle. H\ope that helps.

Yes it does....i mean . i really dont know much about tech..........but if you are asking if images from Blu Rays or DVD or HDTV (widescreen format) are displayed in 16:9 or 16:10 ..... the answer is Yes !. Cheers !

Dear Lance, The UN65H8000 has 1080p upscaling but not 4K upscaling. 4K is higher resolution. Eric C

I used to have the 65" version. It will only show 4k photos from USB not video. I have found the nvidia shield to be one of the cheapest players for outputting 4k through HDMI.Before I returned the TV I used shield and it worked great using Mx player app.Unless you have a good graphics card connecting your computer. I have radeon 7750. It was choppy trying to play it through computer.

No. This unit has a 1366x768 (HD) display, 16:9 aspect ratio, Supports 720p content. Hope that helps you out. Have a nice day.

I have the 16:9 widescreen model, and it works just fine on my mac. I do believe it comes with install disks for both systems, but it's been so long since I first got it that I can't remember.

I have only tried it on the 7" HD version. The seller could tell you for sure.

I have the 100" airbright 3d it works decent I have a great viewing angle. Every time someone comes over to watch the game or movies they all love it. I do have some sort of image imperfection on the screen. Its only noticable on a white screen projected. I did send back one screen because of it and it was the same type of imperfection on the new screen. The problem is you won't see it until the screen is fully put together. I said forget it the second time around it was not that major to have to restrech another screen..overall I would give this screen a 7.5 out of 10. Its the best you will find for the money.

So far I find that it works but that it squashes all widescreen output in to a 4:3 display, distorting the image. We're using it for displaying laptop-to-TV, hoping there might be a resolution setting on the laptop that will fix it.

I have one and it only seems to output 16:9. I would like to change it to 4:3, but I don't see a way to control it. There are 2 buttons. One labeled "switch" that selects from the 3 available inputs (s-video, composite, hdmi) and another labeled "720/1080p" to select the output resolution.I don't see any communications port; so, I don't think the firmware can be altered, either... meh

I use 16:9 aspect ratio and can see the entire screen. At first, I had it set on "cinema zoom" and my screen was zoomed in and lots of my picture was cut off. I haven't had that problem since switching to 16:9. Hope this helps!

Yes, you change from hd mode to standard, then you switch from 16:9(widescreen) to 4:3(full screen) shooting.

Apparently they have upgraded to what they call "near HD"... 1280x540. I would like to know if anyone has actually seen this on a decent size 1080p screen, and how it looks. Also, can it pass 5.1 sound?

It does if you dock it with a compatible model of iPod/iPhone, the main problem is the user mindset in trying to use video. You have to stay within it's realm of operation. It's not going to do 1920 x 1080 dpi, you have to downsize it to what it can work with. Once you do that it's a wonderful machine capable of giving hours of playback of music and videos.

854x480 AKA 480p. A bit frustrating that this isn't made clear, in fact my GF thought it was HD when she got it for me. I do everything 720p or better, so I wouldn't have purchased a 480p device for any reason. That being said it's a solid and useful device so I didn't return it.
