Re: sky sports red button

I've found a couple of slight problems on my Samsung V+ box connected to an HD Ready LCD via HDMI.

1: Although the video menu is in widescreen the selection boxes don't match the size and positions of the video windows. I imagine the overlay is assuming that the screen is anamorphic rather than the true widescreen pic via HDMI. Do the Sky boxes switch to Scart for SD streams?











2: The "stats" screen is squished into a 4:3 pillarbox so the video window is distorted.



3: Selecting one of the video streams full-screen squashes the picture into a 4:3 pillarbox. The first pic is via the red button app, the second pic is the main channel.
