TNT has a lot of stuff that is not really HD.

But it is usually pretty apparent.

vick vega · 09-15-2006, 11:09 PM

I thought if it has the glowing hd symbol on the guide it is in hd and both of the movies do.

Psiweaver · 09-15-2006, 11:12 PM

doesn't mean it looks hd it just means that they converted it to the higher resolution and thats what there broadcasting it in then.

They do that "Stretching 4:3" bull crap them and A&EHD do it, I hate it.

Yeah the stretching crap is very annoying. Though I did like some the TNT basketball games from last year that were broadcast in HD they looked pretty good.

Huh, you now that 4:3 is just the aspect ratio right? It has nothing to do with resolution. Most PC monitors are 4:3 yet can display resolutions up to 1600x1200.

Although I don't doubt that they are using animorphic widescreen on ther SD encoded 16:9 programing. This means that if you got a 4:3 TV, it will be letter boxed, if you got widescreen, it will fill the entire screen, just like a normal DVD movie would.

Programs broadcasted in HD will state so, if not it's still SD.

unfortuanately SDTV broadcasts will continue for quite some time longer.
