An adaptation of an aspect ratio of a picture signal is effected by providing (1) a second derivative (D2) of an expansion factor (EF) in response to at least one constant value (C1, C2), by providing (3-13) a first derivative (D1) of the expansion factor (EF) in response to the second derivative (D2), by providing (14-21) the expansion factor (EF) in response to the first derivative (D1), and by expanding the picture signal in dependence upon the expansion factor (EF) to adapt the aspect ratio of the picture signal, whereby use of an expansion factor (EF) less than one results in a compression of said picture signal. |
