Films/DVD Asylum

Posted by W7VS (i) on November 17, 2000 at 15:58:54:

When I get wideangle DVD's, I have a choice of the long skinny (unwatchable) picture or a 16x9-very nice ratio but with elongated circles and people necks. The latter is what I have to watch?? My DVD player has switches for PS and LB and Wideangle. Wideangle is what I have to put in to get the 16x9 (distorted). Is the world forced to watch this way with the expensive new receiver and all?? Need help and or advice. Dick
