Let me explain what I mean exactly :
Sometimes, when old series are broadcast on an HD station (old episodes of "The Simpons", "Cheers", etc.), they are sent in the wrong aspect ratio.
Meaning, the image is broadcast as 16:9, even though it should be 4:3.
Now, I have a plugin which allows me to correct aspect ratios, it actually toggles through all the options that are available in the standard Dreambox 8000 menu.
However, as far as I am concerned this menu lacks an option.
It lists the following options :
* Display 4:3 content as...
* Display >16:9 content as...
What is missing is the option : Display 16:9 content as...
If that option were available, and allowed you to let you choose 4:3, plugin makers could extend their utility to include this option, and force a 4:3 aspect ratio, even if the broadcaster is incorrectly flagging the TV show as 16:9.
My Dreambox is connected via component and the only way I can solve the issue at the moment is by changing the settings on my TV, which is needlessly complex.
Couldn't this feature be added ?
