Hello everybody,
I've been considering getting a widescreen tv. I can get one for a very decent price, so I thought: "why not?". But then, last night I went to a friend's house and he was talking about how the subtitles of his Two Towers-dvd disappeared whenever he played it on his widescreen tv. He said it was a problem of the dvd, which I found somewhat vexing. I believe it is anamorphic, besides I think this big of a release wouldn't be treated in such a sub-par way.
So then, what is the problem? Is it because of the tv? The dvd-player (he has an X-box)? Because now I don't know about getting a widescreen tv. If half of my dvd's will have chopped-off subtitles it's no good (well, for me it is, but not for my family).
Can anyone here help me out perhaps? Do you know what the deal is? Should I just wait until I can afford a projector or something, or is the problem fixable?
Thanks in advance...
