I recently encountered an issue when looking at my Snapmatic pictures compared to other peoples' pics and I noticed mine had black bars on the sides, making my pictures smaller and annoying the hell out of me. I did some researching on Google leading to other forums, and it took a while to find what people thought was the problem. I tested their idea and it has worked for me and I'm 99% sure it will work for anyone with the exact same problem.

If you're encountering black bars on the sides of your Snapmatic pictures, it's likely due to the fact that under your console settings you have your Display set to Normal instead of Widescreen.

Here's how to fix this problem on Xbox 360:
1. Go to Xbox Dashboard/Xbox Home.
2. Navigate over to the Settings tab (last far right tab) and select System.
3. Select Console Settings, then select Display, and then select Screen Format.
4. If your current setting is Normal then change it to Widescreen.
5. Load up GTA V, go take a picture, and then look at your picture. There should be no more black bars!

(I don't know how to do this on PS3, but it shouldn't be too different.)

DJ_BIG_LHello everyone APEX :) I intend to machete a steering wheel and pedals for Christmas with Project Cars 2. The T300 I like a lot ... Can I have your opinion? Or find out which model of steering wheel you are using? I would like to have some advice before making my purchase to not be disappointed ... Thanks in advance :)
mixjah   hey dj, i have a now 3 year old t300 and its still working fine, still happy with it. pretty sure its the best wheel in that price range, best (default) pedals you'll get with the logitech g29 tho. just make sure you dont get a faulty one, apparently there have been some reliability issues with the t300 in the early days.
Scasura   about enough space, you can fold the playseat challenge and put it in a corner..otherwise i wouldnt buy it by my self, also dont have much space
DJ_BIG_L   It's the same for me Scasura, I lack space at home, and with a child at home it's complicated :)
Thanks a lot for all these tips mixjah :)

mixjah   Only watched a little bit of the normal quali before that, but that sounds funny. You'd expect them to have a basic understanding of what's going on at least :d
ZenzicJC   I watched an hour of the actual race but couldn't handle the style of the presenters. They just kept repeating the same info and offered virtually no technical insight. Not to mention their inability to be concise and brief. "The number 19 Magnus Racing Audi factory backed Audi R8 LMS Ultra GT3 car" can be replaced by "car 19", you know?
mixjah   Well that's what you get in the US, they're drilled to using the full brand name and implementing that in the normal talk :d
