Apparantly so - hard subbed into the 4:3 area below the movie frame. I
can 'cure' this in my 4:3 HiScan by viewing on a player via component,
which allows you to select a 4:3 image for non-anamorphic discs. My
other player, via HDMI/DVI displays it framed within the letterbox
area in the 4:3 screen - which is what most modern setups will get on
their widescreens. Great. Now non-anamorphic discs suck even more
when you upgrade. BTW, I also thought he was doing what an
acquaintence of mine did when he upgraded his set: he didn't like the
piller-boxing of 4:3 material on his 16:9 set, so he S T R E T C H E S
the image to fit the screen, and then has the gall to sit there and
watch it as if it's normal. Now, THAT is wrong... Cheers.
