I think I've seen that before, some inputs won't switch formats. Must be
normal...

| Thank you Damon...that makes sense...this and your other posts about
sending SD on the HD transmitter.
| Wayne...this Hitachi has buttons to change aspect and virtual HD...I just
checked and I see I can't change
| the scan mode in video one...but on other inputs I can.

| A lot of the tuners will display the transmission format, but not the
| shows....ie TV 33 can show up as HD with I Love Lucy, and 16:9 is
generally
| HD, especially if you can't change the format from FULL, to Normal or Zoom
| modes....those only occur with SD transmissions...there is a digital code
| sent by the station to force your TV to stay in 16:9. But even then,
that's
| the Transmitter format, not the signal's. You can put an SD signal on a HD
| transmitter.....Kinda like dealing with color and black and white 40 years
| ago....

| | Here's another question for those more knowledgeable with this..
| | We get a few HD stations..but how do you know if they are transmitting
in
| HD or standard definition?
| | If it is 16x9, is it HD?
| | We have one station, UPN, that is usually in 16x9, but the picture is a
| lot more grainy than the others.
| | I know CBS has daytime programming in 4x3, but after 8 pm, most
| programming is in 16x9..when the signal is
| | there.

| | Believe it or not, PBS in Fort Wayne is the only TRUE HD station. NBC,
| CBS,
| | ABC at present is Digital, but moving towards HD. I thought Fox was
| Digital,
| | but not from what I've seen on the ATSC terrestial tuners I've been
| setting
| | up recently.

| | | LeRoy,
| | | Then you haven't seen a true HD station. Seems, CBS transmit the best
HD
| | programming than the others. NBC
| | | a close second.
| | | NBC is usually only SD.
| | | Fox just came abroad and it is OK and UPN is the worse.
| | | ABC, who knows? I can't get anyone there to return my phone calls or
| | emails.

| | | Actually, it is NOT worth it. IMHO.
| | | The picture available on the NTSC system was good enough for ANYBODY.
| | | I think the HDTV picture looks a little PHONY,.. to me !,...but, I
don't
