Black bars
LG LCD TV and Rogers HD PVR box
when the shows are not in HD I get the black bars on the side. Is there a way to remove this. I don't want to have these bars burn an image into my TV |

We have an FAQ re: Black Bars, here:
http://www.digitalhome.ca/forum/showthread.php?t=76089 The way to eliminate them is to enable the stretch mode on your STB by pressing the # button on the remote. Here's a good FAQ for newcomers to the forum with lots of useful information: http://www.digitalhome.ca/forum/showthread.php?t=57741 |

You have an LCD TV and it doesn't get burn in, so for the best picture quality, leave the 4:3 images as 4:3. To stretch the image, you can press the # key repeatedly on the Rogers remote, however, the picture quality goes down and you have distortion of the image. Relevant links were already provided above. Some HDTVs also allow you to stretch incoming HD signals, but as stated above, it's not necessary.
For the proper setup of the HDPVR, see: http://www.digitalhome.ca/forum/showthread.php?t=17719
