How do I get them all in full widescreen? You will have to adjust the screen size for each channel if you really want to fill the screen but it will distort the picture with artifacts.And why do some have 4 sides of bars such as Scifi? See my first answer, pseudo HD

Update: seems the scifi shows up with 4 sides with black bars, but commercials are full widescreen?
Did my answers in red explain it enough?
