Sky Picture Settings

My Sky picture fitted my TV screen perfectly and then a non sky user fiddled with the buttons and now the picture is all to big for my TV set (if that makes sense)!

For instance when I am scrolling through the channels and the info bar comes up can only see half of the writing and on the TV guide page the key to all the coloured buttons is lost ie can't see that the green button says planner!

Have gone in to services, picture, my settings are:

16.9 for the first two items
Scart control: ON
Scart Video output: RGB
Contrast: Medium
HD RES: 1080i

Then all the short cut / coloured buttons are hidden!

It is driving me crazy - can anyone help!

It is probably really simple and I am probably being dull!

Thanks

    Does your TV remote have a zoom button?

    Have you checked the TV settings as well - it sounds more like the picture settings on the television have been changed. You may have options like wide, cinema, 14:9 4:3 for your television. On my panasonic television, it is a button on the remote called 'size'.
    Alternatively, not having sky HD does that have a similar button?

    I never use my TV remote - only happened after someone fiddle with my sky remote!

    But changed my size button on my TV remote and it is fixed - Thank you both for you help - was going a wee bit mental!

    my sky remote lets me change tv picture settings by pressing tv and play.

    you may have pressed a key on the sky remote that does the same on your tv.
