Why has aspect ratio changed on one channel?
The CBS 4 Denver channel has changed aspect ratio overnight and I can't seem to get it back to its usual original 16:9 HD format on our LG smart tv (<1 yr old). Everything I've tried also changes the look of all of the other channels and I've tried monkeying with the aspect ratio settings on both the TV remote and the Directv remote and nothing helps. Any suggestions?

If it's just on one channel, I'd think the issue is with that channel.
Do you have another TV? Did it change on the other TV?
Do you have an antenna you could test it with?

Almost certainly an issue with their broadcast. DirecTV just delivers whatever signal the station provides.

Ok, thanks. That's what I was starting to think as well. It must be some change from the station that is beyond the tv or cable box to affect.

@hgd Do you have cable or DirecTV? If you have DirecTV, you don't have a cable box.

I noticed this change in aspect ratio on CBS here in Los Angeles on Thursday (12/15/2022) during the 2-part episode of "Ghosts" .. so around or after 8:30. Screen seemed distorted, aimed too low, heads and faces at top were cut off. SO odd ...
