    Vertical Alignment on Game and KungFu chs.

    ADVERTS 1
    I ran an overscan alignment on my tv using the HDNET pattern (there are no VOOM ones broadcast that i know of, please correct me if i'm wrong) and after aligning to this pattern, all my DISH network HD channels seem to be aligned properly (HBO SHOWTIME ESPN HDNET...) except for movies and shows that are letterboxed on the (lame) game channel and the KungFU channel... content broadcast on these channels are usually off centered vertically by a few inches (more black bar on the bottom of the screen).

    Is this something typical of VOOM content?

    Yes, the black bar at the bottom is typical for the VOOM channels.

    Your saying that it's typical to see more black bar on the bottom and less black bar on the top?

    And if so why would they do that?

    I see not black bar on top but there is a small black bar at the bottom with certain programs. I do not know what causes that in their transmittion.
