However, if the sending box (cable box, dvd player) knows the aspect ratio of the TV, and the mode the TV is in, it will do it right, though in fact displaying pillarbox 4:3 will waste resolution. But there is usually resolution to waste. Any time your 16:9 signals are filling the screen, and you didn’t have to zoom, nothing has been lost. To get (mostly) correct aspect ratio handling on TV, I have to ignore the "auto" mode and put it in "4:3" mode. In this mode it will display a 4:3 picture with side bars unless it detects a 16:9 signal, in which case it switches to widescreen mode. Unfortunately, in this mode it won't automatically zoom letterboxed 4:3 pictures (which I generally only get with DVD extra features). If I was using "auto" mode, these letterboxed pictures would be automatically and correctly zoomed, based on a black bar detection system.
