A Reset to Defaults action at the bottom of the menu restores all zoom parameters to their default values.

For standard 16:9 content on a 16:9 display, leave all settings at defaults. For 2.35:1 or 2.40:1 anamorphic content on a 2.35:1 CIH projection screen, enable Constant Image Height and set Screen AR to match your screen's aspect ratio. Use NLS Enabled with NLS X to fill black bars on 4:3 content with a non-linear horizontal stretch that keeps the center undistorted.
