anamorphic widescreen
Last modified: Monday, June 16, 2008 

In video terminology, anamorphic widescreen is a process that horizontally squeezes a 16:9 image into a 4:3 space. For the signal to appear with correct geometry, the display must either horizontally expand or vertically squish the image. Anamorphic video is also called "Enhanced for Widescreen" on DVD packaging. [Adapted from Home Theater Magazine]
