I just got a new Nano 4G and found that all Revision3 podcasts have their left and right sides cropped so that the height of the podcast fills the screen. When I view the exact same podcast on my wife's 3G nano it doesn't get cropped and I can see the entire widescreen picture. This is a "pan-n-scan vs. widescreen" debate in disguise, but ultimately I just want to see the whole picture (ie. widescreen). The Revision3 logo even gets cut-off on the right-side! Other podcasts seem to work fine....any ideas or suggestions?

You need to change your settings on your nano for widescreen.

Just pulled up the manual and searched through the ipod and itunes settings for some kind of "Widescreen" setting....anyone know where this is?
