Some things on TV are widescreen. But get widescreen movies, because Punkyhermy Yeah. I'd rather choose Widescreen then! JKozzy Good choice, Punky! Royal Knight some dvd players have options where you can change the aspect ratio Don't really get the point in mentioning it; it's just for setting up a television set, if you have a widescreen TV, you tell the DVD player that so you can take full advantage of it.
If you tell it you have a WS tv and you don't, it'll just chop stuff off. I've always hated widescreen I find it kind of annoying. Why settle for modified crap? I'll try 'em out. I've also had the experience of overhearing people say things like "widescreen DVDs cut off part of the picture.
In fact, the opposite is true. For those of you who don't know, here's a crash course on the difference between widescreen and full screen. Movie screens are rectangular. TV screens are square. Or at least most of them are; HDTVs are changing this rapidly. When you transfer a rectangular image to a square TV set, it doesn't fit.
There are two options. One is to cut off the sides of the picture. This is what they mean when they say "fullscreen. This is especially detrimental when watching an epic film like The Lord of the Rings. Those massive battle scenes don't have the same scope because you're literally not seeing half the participants. It makes a difference, robbing the film you are watching of its majesty and grandeur. The other option is to shrink the rectangular picture down so that it fits in the center of the square screen.
Black bars fill in the space above and below the image. However, filmmakers and film buffs prefer to see all the actions happening especially in cinematic shots of epic, sci-fi and adventure movies than having the full-screen version that crops much of the original footage. With the widescreen and letterbox formats, no part of the picture is lost and each shot is composed how the director originally made it.
Filmmakers prefer the longer widescreen format called the anamorphic widescreen. This has a aspect ratio unlike the usual , which means that the movie is 2.
When viewing such movies on a full-screen TV using the letterbox option, the screen has larger black bars on the top and bottom of the screen as compared with a movie in aspect ratio. For both broadcast and consumer cameras, recording in widescreen format is already a standard. Movie studios, TV networks and even online content producers are now prioritizing shows made for widescreen releases. Her diverse work experiences include projects in the Philippines, Korea and United States.
