I watched it last night and initially it was 4:3 with large bands on the left and right. I played around with the V+ settings and hey presto go it into wide screen mode.

Original settings
Plasma TV set to FULL on HMDI input.
V+ set to 720 wide

New settings
TV set to wide
v+ set to 720

Picture now in wide, change back to original settings and it goes back to 4:3.

On the new settings nothing appears to be lost by any zooming effect, I don't have the technical knowledge to be able to explain why it works with the new settings, but it does work (for me anyway).
