Until 2 days ago, I only had telephone and internet with Verizon and was getting my TV with an antenna. I called Verizon and signed up for the new custom plan. The agent told me about the FiOS TV app. She told me that I could use that immediately before a tech came out to update my FiOS equipment. I was hoping to be able to use the app without the need for a set-top box. I've been getting used to the app for the past couple days. I'm using it on a Samsung Smart TV which already had a Verizon TV app installed.
This morning I wanted to watch a classic black and white movie on TCM. For the first time I noticed that the aspect ratio was wrong. The image filled the screen, causing it to be compressed from top to bottom. In broadcast mode, I am able to change the aspect ratio in Menu/Picture, but this function does not work in the app.
Has anyone else had this problem with a smart TV? I noticed one post about this issue on a tablet. Any idea if I can do anything about this?
Thanks!
