    Screen Sizing after Update

    I updated my ET8500 via Image manager to 5.2.001 but I don't appear to have the display settings correct although I selected the same settings when going through the install (HDMI - 1080p - multi). On previous updates everything goes through fine and I never have any problems.

    On some channels, when I go into any of the menus such as guide or settings the display is too big for the screen. I tried reinstalling but with the same result. On investigation the channels affected are - non-HD channels such as BBC1 NE&C, ITV2, Dave, etc. It affects both Freeview and Satellite.

    Unfortunately I don't understand enough about the display settings to diagnose what I need to do.
    The Video settings are as follows:
    HDMI
    All Resolutions
    no
    5 seconds
    1080p 24Hz
    1080p 24Hz
    1080p 24Hz
    1080p 25Hz
    1080p 30Hz
    500
    Auto
    Auto
    yes
    yes

    What TV have you got? Most TVs have an overscan feature thats enabled which you need to disable/turn off. On my LG TV it is called “Just Scan” in the Display settings. My old Panasonic was called “Overscan”.

    Usually when “All Resolutions” is set to Yes can bugger the picture up.

    It is a cheap one - Hitachi 50HB6T72U Smart. I can't see anything in the menus about overscan or similar but will look in the manual tomorrow.

    But I have changed the All resolutions to disabled and it appears to have cured it. 👍🏻
