Please help me...again


Ok, here is what happened. My Dad and I watched a Dvd for the first time after getting our new flat screen and our directtv+dvr. We had a little touble connecting the dvd player to the tv but then i tried doing it like i do my playstation and it worked. The picture was dark so I went into the picture menu and made it brighter.

Ok, so we watch, turn off the dvd, and I start to watch normal sat tv. I quickly notice that the screen is displaying too big. Like on Comedy Central, the little CC icon has only the top half visible. I have played with the tv picture and screen settings. I have read the owners manuals. I have reset the picture settings. I have reset the TV itself. I have reset the DirectTv dvr receiver. I cannot fix this problem. I don't know what created it. We must have hit something somewhere at some point to do this.

OH, and this is probably important. When I use Direct TV menus and stuff, they fit right like they should. Its only the signal or whatever that is coming into the TV that is streched verticaly.

It's a Sony Bravia XBR4 series.

Please, please help me if you can. Thanks.
