    • My TV picture is too small (letterbox format)
    The TV screen has black borders on the top and bottom, has a distorted picture or a single band across the screenFigure depicting TV with small picture
    TV in letterbox format.
    Troubleshoot your TV:
    • Does your picture have borders on the top and bottom? If you change the channel and the borders go away, you are watching a program being aired in letterbox format.

    • Is the TV screen distorted? Play a VCR tape or DVD. If the screen still appears distorted, you might be experiencing an issue with your TV equipment. Contact your TV's manufacturer or review your TV's user guide.

    • If the issues persist, call the Verizon Fiber Solutions Center.
