Hi All,
I purchased a Solo2 from WOS and it's a great box.
However, I pipe the signal around my house via a modulator and coax cable which looks like this:
Solo2 > Composite Out (yellow cable) > Modulator > Coax Cable > TV Tuner
No matter what I watch it only ever sends the picture to the TV's as a 4:3 ratio.
There doesn't seem to be any WSS via composite?
I tested WSS via scart and that works fine as it's pin 8 telling the TV the aspect ratio to use. (see http://www.skycopyplus.co.uk/skypluswss/wss.htm) there just doesn't seem to be any Line 23 information for WSS.
My Sky+HD box is able to "Widescreen Switch" via the same modulator and cables so that works fine on the same TV's.
Can anyone tell me if it's possible to get a Vu+ box to display a composite cable output as 16:9 natively? I want to leave the TV's in AUTO Aspect Ratio mode.
N.B. The box switches perfectly using HDMI too - it's just the Line 23 signal that seems to be lacking.
Does anyone have any knowledge on this? or can someone else test their box using a composite cable? make sure you have your TV in Auto Aspect mode though!
