Streaming problem

    Hi,
    Apologies if this is in the wrong place. I'm having issues streaming movies from my PC through my UPC Horizon box to the TV. The movies aspect ratio seems to be pan and scan when it sterams to the TV and not 16:9. Now when I stream the same movies through PS3 (from the laptop) it appears in the correct ratio. UPC says the box's settings are all correct and it's probably the laptop. So just wondering if there's some setting I'm missing. I have a Lenovo x201 thinkpad with Win 7. Curiously, TV shows stream perfectly and in the right format. But it seems it's just the movies that are transferring incorrectly in terms of their aspect.
    Any help, advice, ideas appreciated.
    Thanks,
    E71

    How are you streaming them from Windows? Do you have a Smart TV wired directly to your UPC Horizon box? Does the PS3 use the same TV?
