No signs of this issue at all in the logs, so I try to describe it as well as I can.

If only one tuner is available and I change channel from one mux to another TV Client doesn't recognize aspect ratio correctly.

For example when I change to completely different mux and channel, chance is that TV Client adds thin black bars no matter if the channel is currently using 4:3 or 16:9.

After changing the channel it is correct for an instant, but then it happens. These black bars and small squishing of picture follows until I either restart client or change channels within same mux and hope to find one using different aspect ratio.
