For what it's worth, the set is 4:3. In any event, something can't be right. If I was at Circuit City, Best Buy, or whatever and saw the windowbox during HD.....I doubt I would've bought it.
Well, I spoke to another guy with Crutchfield who told me that when the TV is not receiving a HD signal, it'll go to that mode. Turns out, I didn't realize the cable company had separate channels for HD (which aren't broadcasting now I guess). Thanks for your help!
Hey all, My local cable provider was by and delivered and installed a Motorola High Definition Decoder for my Sony 40XBR800. Now, when I put the TV on Video6 (where the HD is hooked up), the screen shrinks down to about 34" diagnol (sp?). I'm not talking letterbox, there's a 3-4" border...
I got my Sony 40XBR800 delivered from Crutchfield yesterday and it is beautiful! The picture is just great....but I swear the letterbox is crooked. By this, I mean the top border on the right hand side of the screen is 2" but on the left hand side it's 2 1/2". Have any of y'all ever heard of...
