When you say "properly set up," what do you mean? I understand that a
regular TV (not widescreen) can play widescreen DVDs. Is there some setting
in the DVD player itself or is there one in the TV? I have messed around

difference besides the picture just switches between formats. Anybody know
what I'm missing here?
