The title pretty much says it all. I'm using a 612 receiver connected to the TV via HDMI, and when I watch a .2 or .3 subchannel the picture is stretched vertically so that the top and the bottom of the picture is missing. When I watch the same suchannel with the antenna connected directly to the TV the aspect ratio is correct, it's only when watching thru the 612 that I have the stretching problem. I cannot find a setting on the 612 that will correct this, in the HDTV settings I'm set up for Analog Type: Offair, TV Type: 1080i, Aspect Ratio: 16x9.
I checked the system software and it is L705, is that the latest?

I do not have any aspect ratio issues with any other type of reception, of note the OTA .1 signals match the same stations received by satellite.

If it matters, the TV is a Samsung 32 inch 1080i.

Is there a setting I missed, or is this a known problem with the 612?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks. That was too easy, the answer was staring me in the face.
