Changing Aspect Ratio on an HR24 receiver.

The new HR24 will not allow the user to change the "TV Ratio" from 4:3 to 16:9.  You can change it on the screen, but when you go back in, the receiver has flipped your change back to 4:3.  There is no way to override this bug.  There is a bug in the firmware of the HR24 that needs to be upgraded, and then downloaded to your receiver.  This is the ONLY solution to this issue.

There are no "new" HR24s at best if you just got one from a third party source then it was refurbished.
