You're right that the BBC and five are always 16:9 but they do also
broadcast an AFD to indicate that only the centre section is active.

In contract ITV and C4 use the full horizontal resolution for 4:3 and
set the MPEG aspect ratio flag.

I think Myth must ignore AFDs because I noticed that on BBC2 for
example with a 4:3 show the OSD covers the full width of a 16:9 
screen but on ITV it only covers the centre section.

I've never had any problems other than that though, and that isn't
really a problem.
