Sony KV-32FX60: Setting Wide Mode permanently
 

I have a problem with the wide mode on my Sony. When I use the PVR guide,
the TV switches to zoom picture mode and I loose the edges of the menu
screens. So I'd like to permanently set the TV into wide so it no longer
zooms.

Anyone know how to do this please

Thanks

Can you not do this by pressing the blue button to cycle through the modes?

Alternatively go to the picture settings in the menu and choose wide from
there

Yes but I want to set it permanently. The you suggest will not stick each
time you change channel or bring up the PVR menu

Robin,

On my KV32 DU60 I just set the Wide mode and it stays that way except on
some of the Freeview channels.

Can I suggest you check out this site - it has not been updated recently but
there is a load of info, plus a forum where you may get an answer.

The FAQ at the site has a piece on autoformat problems.

I turned AutoFormat off everywhere and this has fixed it. The downside is
that 4:3 shows are distorted which I can live with but not ideal
