Has anyone else noticed any framing issues with SD (4:3, letterbox) programming on a stations HD channel?
For instance, NFL-HD broadcasts a lot of non HD, 4:3 stuff. When tuning to a specific HD channel, ie NFL-HD, you get the native ratio of that broadcast. (If it's non-HD you get 4:3 and pillar boxes. If it's HD, you get 16:9 and a full screen.) Well, I just noticed over the weekend that SD broadcasts on HD channels have a slight framing issue on my TV. When a non- HD channel is on, I get a white fuzzy horizontal line across the very top of the screen. It almost seems as if the picture needs to be shifted a bit vertically to eliminate seeing this annoying fuzzy line.
This problem is eliminated if I switch to that stations SD counterpart. So in essence, I am getting the same SD picture whether I view on that stations HD channel or SD channel if I leave in native format, however the HD counterpart seems to have a framing issue by displaying this annoying white fuzzy line at the top of the screen. I get no framing problems or white fuzzy lines if the same station broadcasts an HD image though. Very strange.
Any ideas?
For the record I have an HR-20
