I Have A Standard 4:3 Tv. I Can't Watch In Letterbox Format
i have a standard 4:3 TV. I have direct tv with a HR44 box. I want to watch in letterbox format but there is no option available to do that. I was able to do it with my first HR44 box until I had to have it replaced with a new one (same model). Now I can't select letterbox format because it doesn't appear in the list of options.
