Is there any hardware or software that allows this to be done?
This is a problem im facing, too. Anything old ive got from youtube has the borders at the sides, and a few have borders all around. IÂ’ve been on youtube and had a look to see if the same videos have the borders, which they do.

Some videos, for example, “Queen - Killer Queen Top Of The Pops 1974” has borders all around on a 16:9 screen, making the actual footage 4:3. Theoretically, couldnt these borders be removed giving a full 4:3 screen on the TV screen?

Thanks
