Virgin Media - picture quality tip Ensure you're getting the best quality picture every time on your Virgin Media box.
Press the Home button on your remote, followed by Help & Settings, Settings, then Video Output.
Check the aspect ratio - this determines the size of things that appear on your TV screen to ensure it's proportionate.
There's full, which fills the entire screen, Panel which is ideal for watching a film in widescreen, and Zoom to choose from.
The other useful setting that may improve picture quality is the Video Output Format.
This lets you choose the resolution your content is broadcast in.
You can tap on Test Formats to identify the formats your television is capable of displaying.
But the best option is probably Auto Detect.
