The picture on my new LG 43UJ6300-UA tv is too big. In other words, the edges of the picture are cut off. Is there a way to make the picture smaller so the entire picture will show on the screen? null

Question

Accepted Answer

you have to go into the main setting menu and not the one that shows down the right hand side of the tv. It is confusing and it took me a little while to get there. I will post some pictures later if you still having problems

Sometimes it is the cable box remote. Look at your cable box remote and look under the number 9. It should say aspect or have a # sign, press the button and see if this solves your problem.

I did as you suggested, Anonymous, thank you. I went into “Settings”, then “Aspect Ratio”. It seems my only option to get the full picture on the screen is “All Direction Zoom”, which gives me the issue of the whole picture not being on the screen, or ”16.9”, which gives me gray bars on each side of the screen. Any thoughts?

This is a common question and one that tech support could not answer. hit your home button then the settings button from there select picture then aspect ratio then just scan. it will give you the option of on /off/auto. just turn it to off and it will allow your screen to fit

Roach · Answer

1) Go to settings (Gear Icon)

2)Click on the Bottom icon that looks like Three Dots  ... (All Settings)

3)Select Magenta color Picture icon by pressing the right arrow key

4) Directly Below the Aspect Ratio is a setting called Just Scan--the default setting is Auto, turn that to "On" 
and it should put it into perspective

what you describe it typical for any recent TV. The movies etc are broadcast in Letterbox format (bars on top and bottom). The only way are this is to alter the aspect ratio of the screen which you did.

Please click on settings, read and follow the prompts about picture settings, brightness and etcetera. Or you can goggle and follow the instructions. Thank you

Hey, Barbara: no picture on the sides happens because you're watching something from the days when TV cameras didn't cover that area, because DVDs of theater films (that >do< use the left and right side areas) where not for sale yet, so TV screens were all made not as wide as they are now. Web search "Pillar boxing" and "Letter-boxing" if you want more details.
