Re: Adelphia hdtv

ijgolf:

You have to setup the cable box to see your 16:9 screen. Shut off your cable box. Hold down the Guide & Info buttons on the cable box. Then the screen setup starts. Setup your screen for 16:9 and 1080i. Turn on the cable box. Your HD channels should fit with no black bars.

Now all your nonHD channels will have bars on the left & right. Go into the Advanced Settings. You'll see the setting for Picture Size. Set it to Stretch. This will stretch all the nonHD channels to fill with no black bars, but it won't change the HD channels.

You should be good after that. The Guide bar on the bottom of the screen doesn't fit like before, but who cares!

Thanks. I have tried that but my set is a 4:3 hdtv. I know the hd will have bars on the top and bottom, but on the non-hdtv - I have to reset the scan lines to 480 to get a full picture. If not, I get a 4:3 picture with a 2" black border all around. I thought there was a way to reset itself to a full screen. Thanks again. Your info works perfect on a 16:9 set, which I did for my friend.
