Sorry to say most channels are broadcast in 4:3 with letterboxing so look crap on a widescreen TV. As long as the Starview is set to 16:9 and the TV the same then that's the best you will get until the channels get their act together.
I have found in the past that Sly was worse than cable with regards to broadcasting chs in 4:3 & 14:9 etc especially sp()rts. My auld gran used to crack up with it until I set her box to 16:9 and her tv to the same and she noticed an improvement.

Thanx Sc0user I took your advise and got a eurovox the Beta 2 is working great I am well impressed with it especially in the emm capture, providing keys to people whom have problems when keys change should no be hard to help out now :)

Only 1 thing to saty to you little man... communication is the key to success. I have no reason to gain any status as it is no concern to me. being friendly and helping people is as there is 2 many people in these forums that hide information or dont make it easy for people.... enough said!

Maybe I was a bit harsh there martin!
like 'all' of us whom study stb's we all come to these forums no matter what level of knowledge to gain up to date information. Wether it be chat on ,cable,astra,DTT, its always good to share experiences from all levels, and get to know people that share the same interests... I hop my past comment did no offend but I am sure you see my point. :)

Well I am glad I know enough to get me by and enough to occasionally try and help people. Like most I am always learning and I am looking forward to learning more about this max08 I bought ystrdy. But as I say gaining a higher status is of no interest to me only new knowledge is. What I have learned so far of the eurovox is that I will probubly not have the same issues I did with starview and gladly less firmware to upload also. and when I learn to what I feel is enough I will move on to another stb and learn about that I am just glad there is enough on the market to keep me busy for a while :)
