Pioneer 696 Upscale Problem ?!?!?!

Hi...
I have a 696 player and i have connected with a Panasonic pt ax100 via HDMI and with a Samsung LCD tv via component.
When i watch at 576 its ok but when i use upscale 720 or 1080 the picture looks vertical smaller (squeezed) with small black borders (up and down)


WHY?????????????????????

Re: Pioneer 696 Upscale Problem ?!?!?!

have you checked you have set the dvd player to widescreen?

on my 696 connected to my pio plasma, when output as upscalled, i need to keep switching the tv from "wide" to "full" when i turn the player on. you might need to press the aspect ration button on your tv to correct this
