I've only had this receiver for a short time, and am stumped on this problem.
I have my laserdisc player connected via a composite video input, which is being converted by the receiver to digital and sent along to the TV via HDMI as 1080p. So far, so good. However, it appears that the native 4:3 signal from the laserdisc is being stretched to fit the 1080p aspect ratio, distorting the picture (everything is too short/wide).
In most cases, pillar-boxing would be the way to display the video (although a zoom option might be nice for letterboxed content). I can't at the moment think of a scenario where stretching would be appropriate. (Some kind of anamorphic content, maybe?)
Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated!
