I am merely asking you if your controls work in the same manner as mine.
If all you are going to do is question why I am even asking the question, and your only response to a request for help is to say "mine doesn't do it", then I think we need to leave it there.
I guess I need look elsewhere for help, rather than read your reasoning for NOT addressing the issue.
You certainly live up to your monicker as a "special" member, although I think I could come up with something a little more fitting.
Cheerio
As I tried to explain, the data transferred includes the required information for the display (the TV) to correctly identify how the picture should be displayed to give the correct frame aspect ratio.
If you sent the same data to a HD Ready 1366 x 768 TV (which doesn't have square pixels) and to a 1920 x 1080 display (which does have square pixels) the frame aspect ratio should be correct for each one. The only way this can work is if the display device can understand the data and convert it into the actual shape of the real pixels on the screen.
I can't try this till tomorrow as myself and family are watching TV but I was merely trying to explain the way the picture data is interpreted is down to the TV/Monitor.
If I find the same as you, it has no bearing on the problem.
Based on this it's hardly surprising you don't see any difference.
It's not my fault you do not understand the way a TV frame has two basic parameters that determine the shape of the frame you see on the display.
One is the correct aspect ratio of the pixels contained in the data. The other is the aspect ratio of the actual transmission.
eg 1080i can be 1920 x 1080 (square pixels) or 1440 x 1080 pixels (rectangular pixels). The TV has to understand this data to produce a un-distorted image depending on the screen size.
Only a 1920 x 1080 source sent to a screen with 1920 x 1080 pixels requires no scaling in the destination. ie one pixel in the data matches one pixel on the screen (1:1) pixel matching.
Any other source 720 x 576, 704 x 576, 544 x 576, 1280 x 720 requires the TV to adjust unless the source is set to scale to exactly the same pixel dimensions as the destination, it's nothing to do with the source which normally should send the data as is.
As for your remark I was addressing the issue, with rather more background knowledge than you clearly have.
I even went to the trouble to photograph my TV to show I do not have the issue and tried to indicate where the solution could be found.
Frankly insulting the one member who has tried to help you is insulting in the extreme.
As no one else has reported this with either a FVP-4000T or FVP-5000T it should at least indicate that the issue is confined to your setup and most likely your TV whose make and model is unknown.
We have the same box, the same software but presumably different TV's.
Where do you think common sense indicates where the likely problem is located ?
