Notes:Note that the 4:3 image has been set within black borders to eliminate overscan and to allow it to be displayed without adjustment on widescreen displays. Being a widescreen image now, it is optimally transferred anamorphically. (The 4:3 sub-image does of course have less resolution associated with it than a non-anamorphic 4:3 full image.)
