oh no...the new update turned out to be a downgrade instaed....the new zoom option is quite simply put, outrageously ugly...the channel logos are cropped, you can't see the scores on football games, and on all the news channels, eg cnn, bbc, the ticker box at the bottom is completely cut off...subtitles are also cut off almost completely...i was very happy with the stretch option before....astro, if you're reading this...please, please bring back the stretch option and if you like you can include the zoom option for whoever who wants it, but i doubt that anyone wants the zoom option at all.

The problem is when you switch to another SD channel in pillar box, it will be back to overzoomed picture, isn't this a problem ? shakehead.gif

Also not everyone like to watch it in pillar box and don't mind with fat people on the screen

Please read all the previous post before posting the first remark. You can change it to show "Pillar Box" as default!!!

Secondly you can use your HDTV to stretch image if you wish to.

Then what's the point enabling the aspect ratio button on the remote if it cant sustain the setting if swtich channel ? isn't this a shortcut to that setting in the setting menu doh.gif
