Full Screen through S-Video

I have my DVR hooked up to my HDTV by an HDMI cord but through an S-Video cord to my DVD Recorder.  The picture is full screen when watched through the HDMI input but when I watch through the DVD Recorder, the picture has black bars at the top and bottom.  The guide and such is full screen.  Is there any setting on the box I can change to fix that?

S-Video is an SD output, not HD. It will only be the right size it you are viewing an SD channel. All HD channels will be be downsized.

I was hoping there was a way because I was able to get it full screen through the same setup when I had DirecTV.
