For High-Definition Users:  
The N3000w is an ideal platform for viewing High Definition Content.  
Best Image Quality will be achieved by the DVI Input, then YPBPR, then RGB.  
For 720p usage, there is a special “1:1” mode which allows the content to be displayed in it’s  
“TRUE” form as broadcast. However, due to variances in broadcast practices, it’s possible  
some image distortions can occur. To use this mode while viewing 720p content, Press the  
“WIDE” key on the remote control and select “1:1”.  
For Letterbox Content Users:  
Letterboxed (or “Widescreen”) versions of DVD movies are most commonly formatted for  
standard 4:3 Televisions. The N3000w has the capability of expanding this content so the  
entire screen is filled at the expense of image accuracy. To use this function, press the  
“ZOOM” key on the RCU and cycle among the available options.
