And what exactly we see there? What is the stream resolution/aspect ratio and what resolution has your monitor?
Scaling is done by the videosink (default is d3dvideosink) and not ds.
If you are on windows you can try different videosinks: add "VideoSink=dshowvideosink" or "VideoSink=directdrawsink" in the section "[General]" in the dreamstream.cfg.
Depending on your graphics card maybe you must run ds with the commandline option "-f".
VideoSink=dshowvideosink did not result in anything. both SD or HD channels still shows as 720x576i / 1280x720p both with aspect ratio 16:9 and showing letterbox.
VideoSink=directdrawsink - that fixed the SD channels showing aspect 16:9 but filling whole tv screen as rather than letterboxas i had before. But the HD channels still show as widescreen and not filling the whole screen.
i have a 1024x768 resulution plasma tv
below you se two pictures of HD channel. the first is from DS and the seccond is when i switch to dreambox and tv
