594388 2007-09-24 01:52:00 A headsup for those who now find that some of their TV picture is missing with overscan. As from 22 Sep 2007 TVNZ is broadcasting in wide screen format. I use the SKY tuner and wondered why I was losing the sides of the image this weekend. Fixed by changing the STB screen parameter to 16:9. The 4:3 stuff now has black side borders but at least everything is in proportion now. linw (53)

594390 2007-09-24 04:28:00 It has been advertised down here that TVNZ are changing one of the TV One transmitters in the wee small hours of tonight/tomorrow. Viewers in the eastern suburbs of Southshore, Redcliffs, Mt Pleasant and Sumner will need to re-tune their TV, DVD or VCR to the new channel. FoxyMX (5)

594396 2007-09-25 22:38:00 Until everyone has a widescreen TV and ALL shows are shot and broadcast in widescreen, it's just damn annoying. Agent_24 (57)

I liked it better before TV1 went wide screen as everything was full screen. Now I'm stuck with black borders on each side, looks bloody awful. I might as well have my old 29" to look at it.
