This could be a probleme with my TV (Mits 65" rear proj)and not the
Voom STB. My TELEVISION does not allow reformatting (stretching) in
digital mode through the television controls. Obviously, VOOM's
digital STB only carries digital signals. Therefore, non HD OTA
broadcasts have black vertical bars on either side of the picture.
This problem is corrected when an HD show is broadcast. Also, I do
not have a problem stretching the non OTA channels that are not
broadcast in HD through the VOOM STB or if I choose to watch the OTA
chanels through a non digital (SVideo) input. By the way, this only
effects true HD capible stations such as the major networks. The
brodcast for other OTA stations that are digtal but not HD do not
have this issue through the STB.
My question is this: Mitsubishi warns against watching any more
than 15% of total viewing time with the screen not full because of
potential (subtle) screen fade as the TV ages. Does anyone know if
A)there is a way around this and B)is this screen fade really a
significant problem?
