I just bought a new HDTV and moved the other HDTV to the 2nd spot on the 711. I know I cannot get this in HD, but should it be in the proper apect ratio. When I hit the format button on remote #2, i have normal and letterbox. Normal is 4x3 and letter box would be letter box on a 4x3 tv, but stretched on mine with black bars at top and bottom.
It is a 42 Panny, not sure on the model off the top of my head(about 2.5 years old, 720p model).
Thanks,
1.) You are connecting a 42inch Widescreen Panasonic to a coaxial feed from your 722 Receiver that was designed to output Standard Definition (on tuner #2) in the first place...
2.) When you press the */format button on the 1st TV you'd get:
Stretched/Zoom/Partial/Full......
3.) You cannot do this with the Standard Definition fed, HDTV with the remote because (SEE #1)
As an example, I too have 2 HDTV's...
The 2nd HDTV is being fed Tuner #2's information:
Which is an HD signal down-converted to SD, make sense?
So, Your options for */Format will be different, e.g 4:3 not 16X9....
16X9=WideScreen
4:3=Standard.
I've noticed that Not all channels function this way, btw.
You can view an HDTV signal on the SD feed
i.el (if you are paying for this service which is $10 extra)
You get the letterbox option.
