When i watch some HD programs there are side bars, so I figure that the program is not being sent in 16:9 do I change the TV resolution or the Voom box.? Too full the screen
What you are after is stretch mode, not changing the resolution. Also all HD by definition is 16:9.Plywodstatebum said:When i watch some HD programs there are side bars, so I figure that the program is not being sent in 16:9 do I change the TV resolution or the Voom box.? Too full the screen
Your guess is as good as minePlywodstatebum said:my tv has Zoom is that the same?
I'd say that's not good advice if you don't know what kind of set this is. A CRT or plasma and he could be looking at burn-in in the near future (especially with factory torch mode settings).Ronald_Jeremy said:Watch it with the black bars.![]()
The ESPN side bars are FAR preferable to black sidebars (the less contrast the better chance for no burn-in). Of course best bet is stretch mode (zoom usually expands the picture horizontally AND vertically, lose a lot of the picture in the process). I have a Hitachi CRT tooPlywodstatebum said:well its a RPTV Hitachi 57T500, I wondered about those side bars on ESPNHD since there not black like i have it set on other channels. Thanks for making me think about that, Brain Damaged ,,,60's and 70's did it.
