In short...I agree with "Wasted", HDMI is a backward step in some
ways. The Sky box should handle the compression of 4x3 progs (like the
Foxsat) and not rely on the TV.....which generally doesnt do it.




I think the idea however is that the sky box SHOULD output the 4x3 with bars
on the side (or if your using a 4x3 output) it should just insert it's own
bars at the top and bottom for widescreen.
The niggle I had for years was that some stations (and say hi to Virgin1)
still switch from WS to 4:3 when playing adverts!.. I hate to see the source
change in the middle of an advert, or right when the show is about to
return.


Last week, I found that while watching Star Trek TNG on V1, the aspect
ratio was changing every few seconds throughout the programme, the same
night, it was happening on The Wire on BBC2.
