Mostly the PBS stations do this all the time.
Many other do it sometimes.
What is the point? do they save money?
Are they idiots?
So the broadcast is a 16.9 content, the station broadcasts it into the inside of the standard shadowed off 4:3 screen area, and thus leaving bars above and below the picture.
Yeah Zoom can 'fix it.. But what for?
Do they think only poor folks who have old tvs ever bother to watch crap on PBS??
This just makes me want to SCREAM!!!! I have emailed PBS several times to complain.. and no response.
What gives?
