Re: Wrong aspect ratio on channel 11 - Dish SD. Other providers?

Jan,

What you're talking about makes no sense. I specifically said all the other channels are coming in correctly - hundreds of them. And there is no format button anywhere; I have SD receivers and old tube style 4:3 TV's. Thank you though.

djdanska,

Thank you for trying, but you didn't say if the aspect ratio was wrong. Was Barney stretched vertically so that he looked taller than he should be? That WTTW HD logo always comes up, even back when they were broadcasting in the correct ratio for SD viewers. Your theory about converting the feed makes sense, but I don't know if that's problem or what I should do about it if it is. Calling customer service for Dish or WTTW just gets you through to low-level people who have no idea what I'm talking about. Thank you.

Can anyone else please try to look for me?

Some sets/boxes have 'channel memory'
and will remember format last used on this one channel
It's not being sent that way from the station
