Re: stupid question regarding my new HDTV
right..
official movie size is 2.35-1 many films are shot this way but a lot are shot and brought down to 1.85-1 - but if it's a big movie, expect to have to expand the picture a bit - I see a lot of movies (on Sundance) that are broadcast in 4:3 but have the letterboxs there too - and then you use the zoom function to get it to fill the whole screen... pretty damned cool - my DVD does the conversions automatically but it also stretches my stuff to 16:9 which pisses me off when it's a 4:3 movie - so I have to use the vertical stretch option to even it out- RB |
