Anybody find that 'Diagnosis Murder' is going out on VM in 16:9 and not 4:3?

If so, please post your VM region.

No - VM confirm a software bug here.

It was 4:3 on all platforms with correct pillarboxing - on VM 101 if was stretched to 16:9 - but other BBC1 national in EPG were OK.

The problem I get on VM is that a 4:3 programme stays stretched and fills the screen - but on Sky/DTT the tv is correctly switched to 4:3.

I only see the problem on BBC1 on 101 - no other EPG number (not even the BBC1s higher up).

VM imply the problem is with the software in my type of box and it is logged as a problem.
