    Where'd my letterbox go?

    I searched the forums, but I didn't find anything that quite ansered my question. I have the 625 receiver running through a standard 4:3 television. Until quite recently, I was able to watch widescreen programming in a letterbox format. Now everthing seems to be full screen, with the sides...
