Question about Hitachi UltraVision CineForm 55VG825 55" HDTV

Hitachi Ultravision LCD Rear Projection

I believe the problem has something to do with the aspect ratio. The top and bottom of the screen is cut off. I have tried adjusting with the "aspect ratio" button, but cannot seem to shrink the whole entire screen. Any suggestions or solutions?

Normallly, if the format button on the remote for the television does not achieve the desired affect, then, a cable box or a satelite box is where the change needs to be made. For example: A Motorola Cable box needs to be set up to go to a wide screen when an analog signal is detected. It's difficult to determine the repair without knowing the hook up of the peripherals. Hope this helps.

I have one of these TVs and I've noticed that they use a LOT of overscan when converting the image to the screen, so unless I'm in letterbox mode I tend to miss a lot from the top and bottom, not to mention the sides, so anyone who has this problem with this TV may be suffering from this rather archaic problem.

Top and bottom of screen are cut off how do we adjust to get screen to fit

Press the "Aspect" button on the remote until the picture looks appropriate. You are probably trying to display a 4:3 ratio channel on your 16:9 ratio TV. You are probably viewing it in "zoom" mode, which does not stretch the 4:3 ratio video, but enlarges it until it fits the width of the screen, which zooms part of the video off the top and bottom of the screen.

It sounds as if the aspect ratio is not set properly. On the original remote there is a button labeled "aspect".
Try pressing it and see if you can choose a selection that will make the picture fit. Thanks for using fixya.

Aspect Ratio or Input Issue

Not sure but you might be confusing your aspect selection on your DVR with aspect selections on the tv itself. Make sure you use your hitachi remote & check all available aspect ratios. Find one that suits u best

On your remote there should be a button that says "Aspect" or "Pic Size". Press thisuntil the video fills the screen. If you do not have the remote of don't have the original remote, this setting can be found by preesing the menu button on the tv, go down to video settings and it should be listed under "Aspect Ratio", change it untill the video fills the screen.

Wide screen movies dont fill screen

This is normal because they are broadcast in a widescreen format (If they fit the screen the aspect ratieo would be off on the picture!)
