My Samsung SIR-T165 does not let me have access to the submenu that sets whether the analogue channel picture on a 4:3 tv (Sony LKV-40XBR800 connected with DVI) is displayed with side bars or stretching. The picture is being displayed letterboxed, rather than the full screen it should be. Is this a defective unit or normal?

When an analog channel is upconverted with the Samsung, the only aspect ratio available is 16:9 letterbox. Other menu options are unavailable.


However, if you look at the S-Video analog output, it appears to be zoomed and fills the 4:3 screen completely, losing some picture on the left and right.


Hope this helps.
