Hey whats up?
I was at K-mart tonight and was looking at a Curtis Mathis 32" TV, and it has three viewing modes:
Normal
Zoom
Wide
I read the manual, but does not state whether it will squeeze 16:9 Anamorphic.
It only says that the Wide mode is for 16:9 movies,and thats it! Extremely vague manual!
Do any of you know if this mode will squeeze Anamorphic?
My thought is that it will because while I was messing with it, it squeezed the picture (obviously), so why wouldn't it squeeze Anamorphic? I think it will.
I mean I can go into my current TV's service mode and squeeze Anamorphic (Although I usually don't, it's a pain).
Or am I wrong and you need a TV with the specific capability to squeeze and properly add the lines to "Properly" view Anamorphic? I don't think so but I might be wrong.
I was wondering if anyone can confirm this for me.
