World Cup in Widescreen!

It almost looks like a 1/4 to 1/2 a screen is added. But are the SS7 logo and score caption meant to be on the edges of the screen?
 
lol!

i think if they put the logo at the edge of the SS7 broadcast it might make it disappear on the regular SS3 channel.
 
So you think the logo position on all SS7 channels is driven by one program so to say. Given that on SS7 it shows S7 and not S3, and the score caption has widescreen below?
 
could run from the same system that only has 4:3 in mind?

I can only give you help for my decoder model (Dual view) but it might help - Menu, 7(Advanced options), 4(TV Installation), 1(TV installation for tv 1), Aspect Ratio. . . .

Thanks Bwana v.12! Sheeez! who would have thought to look under "installation"? I mean really. moronchoice idiots.

Anyhoo, it's my hole's cover that it does not default to that setting, as it seems that all other programmes are unaffected by the 16:9 setting.

edit: except the Peroni ad which seems to be made for widescreen too.

Now I've seen it, I'll wait for something worth watching...

AFAIK the reason the logos are not at the side is that in future the decoder will cut out the middle for 4:3 TVs. So there won't be seperate channels, the decoder will take the 16:9 picture and cut it to display without black bars on a 4:3 TV.
 
I like it. It reminds what areas I wouldn't be able to see on 4:3
