Is it possible when using Plexconnect get movies/series with 4:3 aspect ratio to use Wide Zoom like in PHT?

Plexconnect cannot control your TV hardware. Use the TVs settings to do what you want.

PlexConnect uses the ATV's native video player so has no control over that.

Either there is an option in the Apple menu of the ATV or you have to press the aspect button on your TV remote.
