out of all people, given your high status in the laserdisc community,
i would have not expected you to say such a thing, considering you
know exactly what i am talking about.

rather than talk myself, i will let another post do the talking for
me...

----------------------------

I've found that when I first got my Phillips 30 inch 16 X 9 set I'd
try
watching laserdiscs with the zoom feature to eliminate the black side
bars.
This added a lot of digitalization to the picture. Plenty of
distracting digital artifacts.
I now watch lasers in the proper aspect ratio, with the black side
bars and find the picture quality much improved.
I do find that animation, such as Toy Story CAV box set, can be
zoomed
and still look reasonably good.

Yes, I know what you're talking about. Unfortunately, you're still a
jerk.

If you're going to make a jerky post that tells someone off, next time
try to add a little something of substance to back it up. Otherwise,
hit-and-run insults accomplish nothing but wasting everyone's time.
