Auto with BDs should be 1:1. To be honest you'd have to experiment with an SD test pattern to see what Auto does do, but as you're using it for different content and not going for 1:1 I' stick to On or Off.

The main thing to remember is that Auto is generally the best setting, until you run into issues, then you need to use On or Off.
