I have a 48" JVC HDTV that is wide screen and i am alittle confused about something.
When i watch 4:3 cable TV i set my aspect mode to panorama which fills in all the edges. I also have a cinema, full and regular mode. They all seem to stretch the picture so the 4:3 picture fits in the whole screen except regular which make a 4:3 box(gray sides).
My question is, what mode do i put it in with my dvd player which plays them in 16:9? I usually keep it in panorama still but wouldn't that be cutting off the sides of the picture because it is stretching it too even though it is 16:9? If i put the mode to regular with the 16:9 video coming in it still just makes a 4:3 box(gray side) and the skinny letter box on the top and bottom(black sides).
What do i need to do?
