Since every DVD today are now widescreen-only, and I have a widescreen TV that has 720p and 1080i via component video cables (no HDMI - it's an older HDTV), I would have thought that when I play movies on the Xbox 360 under 720p (which comes with Widescreen). I can play them, but they are still letterboxed even if I use the right settings. I'm trying to get the widescreen disc to play full on a widescreen TV, but so far, I have no luck. Advice, please?
