In Reply to: Aspect ratio horrors posted by Steve Schell on September 4, 2005 at 08:38:59:
As well as just deinterlacing to 480p, many DVD players these days can upsample the 480i data on the DVD to 1080i and 720p. The higher rate signals (1080i and 720p) will only be available from the Toshiba's HDMI output. If the signal is being upsampled, many displays will not give you aspect ratio control as the 1080i (1920x1080) and 720p (1280x720) formats are expected to be 16x9 (1.78:1), not 4x3 (1.33:1).Is this the way your friend is feeding the signal to his plasma? If so, try sending a 480p or 480i (if the Toshiba can output this format) signal via HDMI instead. Aspect ratio control should then be available.
