Home audio & video: why are there bars on my widescreen?????

making hdtv and analog worth viewing

I guess I was carefull in getting my set...first off, my computer monitor is an olivia media-pc lcd type monitor. it has everything, every plug in type to get around ,ost equipments diffecrent hook-ups. I have 3 compters, plus my hd-cable all woring on this little 42# lcd monitor. My only worry is its like a light bulb, a 1600 dollar light bulb, so the day it goes, will be just awfull.This lcd has many different ways of adjusting sizes, depending on what set up you use, including a setup adjustment, for + and - adjustmun
t. Even upand dow.

The same goes for the new 52 inch wega by sony, it has its all 8 inputs, broken down into composite, hdmi, 2 cable in for each tuner, and componite...svideo if you need it. even has optical audio out, dual steroe out. but best of all is the manual settings, full, zoom, wide zoom, and so on...it even has an automatic setting for desiding what mode to set. my mce comp, is set to number 7, it selects full for everything, even the hd, try setting it to wide zoom, and it runs off screen.

so you can see that v's are getting smarter to be able to handle the many formats, ratios and so on....who know where its ggoing....getting the new amazon tv movie on demand sent to my tivo now, whats next
