Looking at the screencaps on the "other site", it appears that X-Files was fully protected for 16:9 after seasons 1 and 2. There was hardly any top or bottom cropping for the HD remastered episodes from season 3 onward.
Unfortunately, at least for season 1 anyways, there are quite a few very short SD upscaled sequences. And I'm not talking about special effects shots or b-roll stock footage either. Some of it just Mulder and Scully walking the office corridor. Apparently they weren't able to find the HD material they needed for those scenes. They can be a bit jarring at times since they are so obviously not HD. This may be why a blu-ray release hasn't been done yet and why Netflix hasn't publicized the new HD episodes.
