Vertical stretched about 20% on SD channels - fixed!

On SD channels, TCM in particular, the vertical was stretched about 20% making the picture look very distorted.

The TCM "bug" or logo is half cut off on the bottom of the screen. It is very obvious that the vertical scaling in the receiver for HDMI is now incorrect.

All was fine last night before the update.

 

I found the answer!

Somehow the Settings for HDTV video formatting had changed.

I reset it to "Native" and "Original Format" and all is well.

You are welcome.

I first thought of simply deleting the post, but then I thought that there may be one or more others out there like myself, who had this problem.

No matter, it was/is not related to the new roll-out.
