Hi there, I returned my first one because the S-Video inputs on the side and back were not picking up a signal (tried camcorder, DVD player, etc). No problem, BB exchanged it. Odd enough, when I took the second set home, it was still in the factory wrap but had finger smudges on the screen and cabinet. Refurbished?? Anyway, this set is working ok so far. However I am discouraged and I read some of the previous threads so far (excellent by the way), and I still can't understand why you can't stretch SD. I have a Dish Network HD 811 attached via component cables. I have the 811 and the TV set to 16:9, which is fine for HD broadcasts, but with SD there is approximately 2 inches of vertical black running on both sides of the picture. I tried the other ratios (Zoom 1,2,etc) and it only made it worse. Any advise? Secondly, on the HD 811, the picture that fills the screen the most in the horizontal vector comes when the HD is set at 480p, if I change it to 720p or 1080i, the picture just gets smaller and smaller. What the heck? Last thing, knowledge is power, and I feel weak right now. Thanks
