• TrueTheater Lighting – Delivers sharper and more vivid images by enhancing image details, naturalizing colors and adjusting chroma and luminance
• TrueTheater Stretch – Displays content on 16:9 widescreen monitors, regardless of the source ratio and delivers natural results by leaving the center of the screen unaffected
