    Angry Media Center Aspect Ratio :@ +REP

    I have a 16:10 19" widescreen and my windows media center has been in the normal 16:9 ratio but I opened it a couple of days ago and it is sqaure (1:1) :eusa_wall. It squashes the picture which is meant to be 16:9 into 1:1 but is fine when its full screen, but that doesn't really work when I like watching tv while multitasking...

    I'm on windows 7 RC at the moment and its been fine since I installed it around june. Its happened to me before on vista too but I couldn't find any fixes for the problem online after searching.

    Does anyone else have the same problem or know any fixes? Or any useful websites which might offer a solution?

    Thanks in advance!

    Go on Live TV or whatever, right click somewhere in the window and then click Zoom, change your setting, done.

    I guess its a half-fix. The window still remains squared but atleast the picture isn't squashed.

    (sry guys, gotta spread rep for both of you)
