Filling the Pro Nav Display

Any idea how you force videos to fill the width of the screen? I can't get DVDs or USB based videos to go full wide-screen.

The screen is obviously use able as it fills to the edges in split screen mode or full Nav in single display mode.

Cheers

Since the screen isn't in 4:3 or 16:9 there will always be a black band either side.

You can however used the 'zoom' function to fill the width although then you lose a little off the top/bottom.

In DVD playback, push controller right into options, select display settings (or something like that) and then check 'zoom' at the top.

Is there also something in the settings that stops it from turning off every ten minutes??

The black band is pretty large either side though. Maybe 15% either side.

I'll try the zoom function, I forgot about that.
