As i explaind in another mail to the list, parts of recordings gets cutoff to the right side of the recording, but if press W key to switch to 16:9 and then change tv to display it as 4:3 i get all of the picture. But this forces me to keep switching aspect ratios manualy on both mythtv and the tv for every show. _______________________________________________ mythtv-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-dev
