Horrible source quality but mine is in full screen (4:3) and no green banner or anything.Originally Posted by g33kt0th4d
Try power cycling your box and see if that helps.

Rebooted, and clicked on Alice in Wonderland again. now it goes to fullscreen youtube window, has audio playing, but NO video.
Playing in 1080i 50Hz, will try a lower video quality and see if it makes any difference.

Smiley face -
Video with green and lined overlays above transposed video. choppy and jittery. audio sounds good though.

Behavior confirmed, on all counts.

As previously stated, it appears to be updating over and over again with a required update, that just installs the version that's already installed. Also all of my shows I watch that are streaming show up in a browser, not fullscreen. Vudu doesn't work - it says coming soon, but I was under the impression that it was part of the launch lineup.

I don't really care for watching the Tron-Derezzed by Daft Punk, but I figured I'd try it out.
After clicking it, received a "Playback Error - Either the format is not supported or the file is corrupted."
