I can't tell much difference using either which is the correct one for blu ray movies?

Thanks

Original. It's not what you've read. Original displays 4:3 DVDs as 4:3 and Full stretches that image to fill the screen. On some Samsung players if you select Original it prohibits your ability to zoom in as well but it's not on all players. So if you want to zoom in to crop 2.35:1 movies select Full.

There wouldn't be any visible difference when watching Blu-rays whether you select Full or Original.
