NASCAR on NBC - is it HD and Dolby 5.1?
ADVERTS 1
Hi:
I am watching the NASCAR on NBC. It looks like it is in HD though the VOOM PG guide says it isn't. Also, the sound is only coming through as stereo. Is it supposed to be in surround like when its on FOX?
Thanks,
Joseph

NBC doesn't do DD 5.1 yet (in most markets). Looks HD or atleast ED to me as well.

Proud Staff MemberIt looks more like fox widescreen (480p). It does not have the details and sharperness of HD.

it is 16:9 SD and DD 2.0. Nice to see widescreen though

I wonder if next weeks TNT coverage will also be widescreen SD on TNT-HD.
I haven't heard anything about HD Nextel Cup until September 11th at Richmond on TNT-HD.

NBC has a wierd way of doing HD, their prime-time comedies aren't in HD like CBS/ABC do, they don't have fear factor in HD, plenty of times I catch shows and movies not in HD, but Jay Leno and Nascar are?
I seriously hope that our local NBC affiliate isn't going to do the Olympic broadcast in HD but instead have BravoHD do it...
