I think it is a disgrace that Foxtel are using that ridiculous black box around our TV's and it causes an unwanted distraction at times. I HEAR it is for the deaf people so they can hear what is happening on the foxtel.I can't believe foxtel did it and i couldn't care less about the reason, revert it back to full screen viewing.If people who can't hear are a preference by foxtel then make them some kind of plugin which allows them to hear through a pair of headphones or something.I want to watch full picture shows without that ****** caption box and think those concerned need to pull their heads in.
I'm not willing to go with less visible quality for the sake of somebody who can't HEAR.
Fix it foxtel and posters get in here and show some support either way.I say **** the caption

What box is this?

It is a blank black box around the TV which cuts out the corners of the show which is used to give deaf people subtitles.
I've also had enough of these idiots who keep sending the foxtel magazine praises for doing it, It's a load of bull.

Black box? Maybe u have it set on 14:9 rather than centre cut.

Push setup and make sure the Programme Display is in Centre Cut.
 
It does sound like you haven't configured your setups properly, I have Foxtel digital & I don't have any issues with black boxes apart from some ads that deliberately have black bars above & below the picture to make the ads appear to be widescreen.

Follow Sports Capital's advice two messages above this one and see it you can fix it yourselves.
