[QUOTE="theboss4, post: 181821, member: 193205"] Hoppo, I dont think your mates and the bar have the tv setup properly. I have been in numerous bars when they have their sky box etc set to 4:3 and they have widescreen tv's set the 16:9. Yes, they do look fat. because their equipment is set wrong. if they had set the sky box etc up properly in the first place, this would not be the case. Also, the letterbox is not their on most widescreen broadcasts, its just their equipment is set wrong. Yes, some broadcasters insist on broadcasting a 4:3 program in 16:9 with bars down the side, but still, if your equipment is set correctly, it will display it in the correct aspect ratio. It's only foreign broadcasters who still broadcast in letterbox, i guess this is cause the majority of tv's in their respective country are mostly 4:3. And yes, this is when you need to zoom.
