In Reply to: ..... Your TV is doing the conversion from 2:35:1 to full-screen posted by Fish on August 27, 2001 at 15:29:12:
The message I am getting from you is that you do not have a clear idea of what "enhanced" does... ???
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
When I say "Enhanced for 16:9 TV" I mean the same as if the widescreen was 'Anamorphic': that is it will present the 16:9 frame on a 16:9 TV OR (big OR) on an 'enhanced' 3:4 TV that can do the "anamorphic squeeze" of the total frame/image height such that all 400+ vertical lines of resolution are inside the 16:9 area INSIDE the 3:4 TV's frame. If a DVD is NOT "enhanced" nor 'Anamorphic' then on a 3:4 TV that can do the 'squeeze' the movie is not 'Enhanced' and some of the vertical lines of resolution are WASTED in the "black bar" area outside the 16:9 envelope. (And furthermore, the picture is even worse on a 16;9 screen, where you will have gray bars at the side, giving only a 3:4 area within which the widescreen piture will have wide black bars top and bottom. EEEK!!!!) SOOOooo Can you see why it might be IMPORTANT to be certain that a movie IS, IN FACT! Either 'anamorphic, or enhanced for 16:9 .... BESIDES being widescreen??
