Abstract

Disclosed herein is a player for playing a software carrier containing thereon digital data representative of picture information having a base aspect ratio and for deriving a video signal having one of multiple aspect ratios, said software carrier including a code indicative of said base aspect ratio, comprising means for representing a selected aspect ratio, said representing means normally representing a default aspect ratio; means for allowing a user to select one of said multiple aspect ratios, thereby to change the represented aspect ratio from the default to a selected aspect ratio; means for reading and processing digital data read from said software carrier; means for generating from said digital data, in accordance with the represented selected aspect ratio, successive digitized frames; and means for converting said successive digitized frames to a corresponding video signal. Also disclosed are a system for generating a video signal and a software carrier.
