Nothing. There is no difference between an SD widescreen signal and an SD
4:3 signal. The PVR150 doesn't know or care whether the signal is widescreen
or 4:3. So either your setbox is set to crop the edges (make sure it's set
to output to a widescreen TV) or your aspect ratio settings in MythTV aren't
right. Try playing with the options in the OSD menu while watching a
widescreen recording.
