Some HD material is still broadcast "letter-boxed". While you "could" stretch it to fill out the screen, it's going to affect the picture quality as you've noted. If you know the broadcast is in HD and it's appearing letterboxed (black bars on both sides), it's probably best to just watch it as-is. |
