HD channels kill auto-switching of aspect ratio - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

Whenever i turn my eurovox ex7000 to a hd channel it seems to disable the automatic changing of aspect ratios from 16:9 to 4:3 and vice versa.. even tho my tv is set to "just scan" (meaning that it automatically adds black borders at the sides when on a 4:3 channel so that the picture is not distorted/stretched). My eurovox is set to 1080i, rbg, 16:9 and P/B.

I would appreciate if someone could help me to fix this as I need to keep turning the box off and on again to sort it which is annoying.

Thanks

If you set it to 16:9, CCO you can use the aspect button on your remote to swich between bordered/full screen.

thanks but when I set it to CCO and put it on a 4:3 channel both aspects ratio options are distorted, one is too stretched and the other is too squashed and missing a bit off the top and bottom.
