(Back from Mexico...)

I wonder what the Edge would do in this situation: I have a SD Sat decoder with component output. The channels my wife view have both 4:3 and 16:9 content, and we want everything displayed as good as possible. And since it's a plasma screen we don't want any black bars that may leave temporary "burn-ins" for hours.

If I connect the decoder using a SCART cable directly to the TV and send standard PAL/NTSC one pin will give the current aspect ratio and the TV can change to always give a full screen. But the TV does this pretty lousy, so I thought a scaler would help. But if the (component) output from the Sat decoder switches between 4:3 and 16:9, will the Edge be able to "follow"? Or does the viewer have to manually switch between 4:3 or 16:9...?
