I have a 32” widescreen audiovox LCD HDTV. I also own a comcast digital cable box, which we used to view hi-def programs through component cables. We recently got a dvi cable and now sandard-def programs have black bars on the left and right of the screen. Th HD is fine,no black bars. But standard-def channels now have black bars on the left and right, but they did not before when we used component cables. Any help would be appreciated.

I am connecting my macbook (the white one) to a widescreen HDTV using a mini DVI to video adaptor and it stretches the computer image, so that movies are deformed (I see “short fat people”). Is there any way I can make the image normal on the tv?

Also, my MacBook is only working in a less definition setting, and its display is no longer widescreen… Is there any way to revert that as well?

Thank you!
