I bought a Magnovox MWD7006, plays my AVI files ok except it will not
fill up the screen.
It is as if it thinks my 18 inch screen is 10 inches. No, it isnt
letterbox before you say that. The black areas are left and right just
as much as top and bottom. The aspect ratio of the video is the same
as my near square tv screen, it just wont fill up the screen. I have a
DVR in another room and I take the same disc out, go into the other
room and it works perfect so it isnt the disc nor the file. I also
make discs for my sister often who has a DVD player which plays AVI
and this never happens there. Tech support was useless so I will have
to return this unit to the store now. So my question is, when I go to
buy another one what is there I may need to look for or ask about
first to try to avoid having this happen again?
