Hi under format 1 there are 3 "sub formats" 4/3 - 14/9 and 15/9 or 16/9 depending on model.

the thing is: you last used "sub format" is the one it will use as default when in format 1. you change the sub format by << - >> or up and down (depending on model) when it's in format 1.

i've turned the lot off again while i go out for the evening but will try on my return ( if not too drunk) , meanwhile Keith , if you have any other suggestions i would be more than happy to hear them , at least it will save a delay ( and my frustration) until you're next on line!

Many thanks for your help so far

Interesting, you may wish to start by checking the SCART cable.

Start by unpluging the SCART cable to the Sky box and see if you still have the problem with terrestrial transmissions

Haven't touched it ........it is linked to a BS 7000 , penta 3's front and 4000's rear and standard sky box and has been like that for 8 months or so ,no problems even after turning the whole lot off whilst on holiday for 2 weeks

Have you had any software updates or configuration changes recently i.e. leading up to the problem ?

Hi Keith

It seemed to start with the sky ( standard box ) but now seems to be doing on terrestrial too )-:

Hi .

I have a 32" real flat avant which has up until now proved to be faultless.

But now when i turn it on the tv no longer adjusts the picture to the screen size and stays in the narrow format , it will adjust via the beo 4 but i want it to do it automatically like it used to.........................

Can any one please help / advise?

Thanks in anticipation
