When playing a DVD that's supposed to be widescreen, I cycle through the different aspect ratios by pressing f7. The initial screen ("auto") makes everyone look skinny and tall; all the other modes move the picture into the corner surrounded by funny colors. Below are two pictures I took:

Other relevant info:
Windows MCE 2005, Nvidia 6600 256mb VGA, PVR150 (retail), Nvidia Forceware 93.71, PureVideo 1.02-196, CyberLink PowerDVD 6.

The problem only occurs in DVD mode in GBPVR. I've tried messing with the resolution, but that wasn't it. Is something wrong with the Cyberlink Decoder? I did a search through the forums, but haven't found this issue anywhere else.

Yeah, thats the nvidia aspect ratio bug.

Work arounds include disabling hardware acceleration in your video decoder, or switching to VMR9 Custom renderer, or using old nvidia videocard drivers.
