No matter which picture size I select, I cannot ever seem to get the picture from the DVD to fit the screen. For instance, I am watching a DVD right now that is in wide screen, and when in "Normal" size, the picture is sitting at the very bottom of the screen... and some of the picture is missing. However, if I change to other sizes, large parts of the picture are cut off. Is there any way to fix this? I have tried different things in the Menu... nothing seems to adjust where the picture sits on the screen.

To change the picture size on Fire TV, follow these steps:

1. Go to the Settings menu on your Fire TV.
2. Select "Display & Sounds" or "Display & Sound" (depending on your Fire TV version).
3. Scroll down to the "Display" section and select "Calibrate Display".
4. Choose the option that matches the aspect ratio of your TV (e.g. 16:9 for most modern widescreen TVs).
5. Follow the on-screen instructions to adjust the picture size and position until it fits your screen properly.
6. Once you're satisfied with the changes, select "Save" to apply the new settings.

Alternatively, you can also adjust the picture size and zoom level directly from the video playback screen. While watching a video, press the "Options" button on your Fire TV remote and select "Picture Size" or "Zoom" to adjust the settings.
Note that the exact steps and menu options may vary depending on your Fire TV version and software version.

please provide the maker & the model & part # of your unit..


Thank you

Some receivers have the ability to do this for you, for instance, all ViP and Hopper receivers from DISH can stretch or shrink the screen to fit. Most HDTvs also have this feature, independent of the type of input, using your TV remote find the button that says something along the lines of screen size, picture fit, stretch, aspect, etc. While watching a program that looks unlike the way you want it to, tap the button until the picture changes to the style you most prefer.

my samsung has a blue button on the lower right side of the remote the botton is labled (P-size) pressing the button cycles the set for the several screen size functions.--Wide Fit--4:3--16:9. If you are watching network TV on an antenna you will get a full picture on 16:9, but you may be watching on cable without HD.

if you are watching dvd try to use the remote control of the dvd player and press the zoom button to make full size. if its not work the tv remote controller has also screen adjustment.thanks

You should be able to change the aspect ratio to fit the size of your screen. This will be the 16:9 4:3 16:10 settings.

You can access these by going to MENU---> PICTURE -----> Select ratio that works----> exit out and watch TV.

IF this will not fix it you need to look into the signals being fed to the TV as sometimes they can have a funny effect on the output picture. Some cable boxes will alter the picture and then it won't come out right on the TV. If it is all inputs doing this tho then changing just the Aspect ratio on the TV should solve the problem.

I'll assume your picture is already oriented properly (horizontally), i.e. you do not need to rotate it.
There are 2 modes for displaying the photo ... (1) the ORIGINAL mode - displays the photo in actual photo size, which may result in part of the photo not being visible on the screen, or, (2) the OPTIMAL mode - which reduces the size and resolution to best fit the screen.
To set image size mode, select the SETUP on the HOME screen display, then highlight and select the DISPLAY IMAGE SIZE button, and go from there.
The first (ORIGINAL) mode is usually the default mode. When you select the OPTIMAL mode, the picture will be scaled to fit the size of the screen ... but you may see "dark" bars (e.g. on top and bottom of the screen) if your picture does not fit the exact screen size.

4.14.1 Understanding Viewing Features
Your LCD HDTV features four viewing modes and Picture-In-Picture (PIP)/Picture-by-Picture (POP) mode.
You can switch viewing modes using the remote control.
4.14.2 Viewing Modes
Normal Mode
The original 4:3 aspect ratio (1.33:1 source) is preserved, so black bars are
added to the left and right of the display image. Standard TV broadcasts are
displayed with a 4:3 Aspect Ratio. Movies in 4:3 Aspect Ratio may be referred
to as pan-and-scan or full frame. These movies were originally filmed in 16:9
(widescreen), and then modified to fit a traditional TV screen (4:3).
Wide Mode
When watching a standard broadcast or full-frame movie in this mode,
the display image is stretched proportionately to fill the TV screen.
When watching a widescreen (1.78:1 source) program or movie, the
display image fills the TV screen. If you are watching a widescreen
(1.85:1 or 2.35:1 source) program or movie, there will still be black
bars at the top and bottom.
Zoom Mode
When watching a widescreen (1.78:1, 1.85:1, or 2.35:1 source)
program or movie, the display image is zoomed proportionally to fill the
width of the screen. The top and bottom are cut off to remove most of
the source material’s black bars. This mode is good for programs or
movies with sub-titles.
Panoramic Mode
When watching a standard broadcast or full frame movie in this mode,
the 4:3 Aspect Ratio (1.33:1 source) display image is stretched
horizontally on the left and right sides to fill the TV screen. The center
of the image is not stretched.

Note: Viewing modes are saved based on input. For example, you lasted watched a DVD in widescreen
mode and then watched TV in standard mode. When you switch back to DVD input, the viewing mode
will return to widescreen.

Press the P.SIZE button on the remote control to change the picture size.


And realize the restrictions as listed:

• In COMPONENT(720p, 1080i) or HDMI(720p, 1080i) mode, 16:9, 4:3 and

•You can not change the picture size when PIP is set to Double.
•When Double ( , ) mode has been set in PIP, the Picture Size cannot

•Wide Fit can be used when watching a Digital HD (High Definition) signal.
Wide Fit sets the optimum picture format by expanding it both horizontally and
vertically. For example, you can reset the picture in 4:3 format to 16:9. Wide Fit
does not support all external devices (DVD, VCR etc.).


Keep us posted.

Also, try adjusting the settings on your cable box, not on the TV. The usually solves the problem and will then allow you to adjust the size of the picture.
