I have an issue with Philip's auto detect mode. On a 4:3 SD program, the majority of viewing still, the auto detect simply stretches the image to fill the display, as if it is an (and I shudder to use the term and start another definition war) anamorphic.


Why can't the auto detect default to super zoom?

The out-of-the-box setting is auto-format, and with a combination of
reliable widescreen signalling information and black bar detection this
means that the viewer normally does not need to do anything anymore.
Plus, with more than half of the broadcast content already being 16:9,
it is quickly becoming a non-issue. (Until the 21:9 display, that is.)
