Hi All,
DTV just enabled local HD channels in Greensboro a few weeks ago and I have a few questions. The HD channels are coming over in 4:3 aspect ratio, Even the letterbox movies or shows. I end up with grey pillers on the sides and black bars at the top and bottom. If I change to 1080I crop, sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt. When it does, the picture quality is crappy. When it doesnt, the picture is clear but only occupies about 70% of the screen. Pretty disapointing. Is this normal for DTV and is OTA the same way? I currently dont have a HD OTA receiver. Thanks for everyones input.
