Scart Lead -> VHS Widescreen Issues
 
I recorded NCIS off C5 last week.... It shows in Widescreen, but when I play it back on my new Widescreen TV it plays in 4:3

TV is set to AUTO. I even changed to 16:9 but no difference. If I resize it with R/C after playing VHS its ok. Stop video for a phone call & its back to 4:3. I had this ones years ago on a OLDER TV. Someone told me I could cut 1 Wire in the Scart Lead to stop the signal swapping the size of screen

Anyone here have ideas? or any Tips?
Cheers

do all tapes played back from the VHS do the same, JediMaster?

- just wondering if trying another scart lead would be worthwhile?
