With my old Pace box I had it set to 4:3 letterbox mode as I have a large 4:3 set and had no problems, the Pace would switch between 4:3 full frame and letterbox 16:9 no problems.

Have now got a Samsung (due to 2mb upgrade) and have used the same 4:3 letterbox setting. Trouble is that it doesn't work properly or is trying to be too clever.

Sky one, C5 and C4 are all fine and switch from full frame to 16:9 as they should, but BBC1 & 2 Itv etc. are all stuck in 14:9. Is there anyway to force it to 16:9 ????
