I don't have the problem you do with non tube televisions (I have a new Sony 46" LCD and it's wonderfull) but I do have a problem with this digital format. My new 46" television has a viewable screen smaller than my previous 32" Sny tube model when watching high def content. There is a 4" black bar on both top and bottom and about 3" on each side. And no, it's nothing to do with settings, according to Time Warner, anyway.
My HD cable box self destrucks monthly from heat. Couldn't afford heat sinks, I guess. Whatever happened to all the claims and promises made by the industry as how we would have multiple channels of every station? Now they say "It's too expensive" Promises made to get things done, then quicly abandoned. Sounds like politics to me. Fox News Sucks.
Follow Ups:
It's Time Warner. I suffered their crappy service and breakdown prone cable boxes for about a year after I got a high def TV. When I switched to an HDMI capable box that's when I really began to have trouble. Finally gave TW the heave ho and went with Direct TV. There's no comparison.
Sounds like it's time for a switch then. Only problem is here in Hawaii we get west coast feeds, so all the programming moves 3 hours earlier.
Thanks for the info.
Yes Direct TV is good, but darn expensive, $70.00 plus dollars for standard def, I recently switched to Dish Network and got two HD receivers for $41.00 for the first year, $56.00 thereafter. Turbo-HD Rules!
