Yeah i prefer not to have black bars on my mobile while watching YouTube because the most and important information is in the middle, look at your videos you can zoom in a lot and not mis anything so no problemo!
I am concerned by this talk of television for two reasons 1: will it mean that the more rhett and link there is on television the less there will be on youtube? and B: is "Internetainment" compatible within a televisual environment? Also naming my two points as 1: and B: was a deliberate choice for my own pleasure.
I've had the same argument with my friends. With widescreen, you see all the picture. You fullscreen people might as be watching it through one of those wrapping paper tubes.
My mom prefers to do the zoomed in thing. It's not so much of a problem for me except when there's text on screen that gets cut off. As for the picture, if I don't know it's there I dont miss it if that makes sense.
it's like when they started putting radios and things into cars, to apeal to some of the older folks they would put out ads that said things liek "no computers!"
i dont like the widescreen, it annoys me to see the black on the top and bottom. maybe i should invent a "Widescreen Filler" somthing that keeps the entire a picture but covers the black areas with smal sized intresting video or comic of some kind
i was fully converted to widescreen after watching Ben Hur and Lawrence of Arabia on TCM. For any classic movie, which are my favs, there is absolutely no excuse. 16:9 widescreen always!
I don't have a wide screen hd tv yet, so I prefer the full screen on that tv. However, when we replace it and get a wide screen, then I'd prefer the 16:9.
I used to work at a video store,and there are tons of people who enjoy there full-screen dvd's. Granted they are all older people,and Link you were very smart not to try and explain it to your father-in-law,because its like beating your head against the wall ! LOL! I would spend countless time explaining why its better to watch widescreen,but after I would explain it to them they woold give this look like I just told them santa wasn't real,and they were three ! LOL!
yeah, TVs and computer monitors can be a little sketchy when it comes to knowing how the output will be; cause sometimes a screen is completely filled if the video is a 16:9 HD video, or sometimes the horizontal black bars come up, or sometimes the widescreen option makes it shrink to play in 4:3 for some reason
kay, i am by no means old but i hate wide screen. i have no idea why but if i get a movie that only comes in wide screen i can't focus on the movie. i just keep thinking, why is this wide screen!? I don't know, maybe I'm old at heart.
I have an older TV, but, I was at a restaurant that had a giant TV, but, it was not in HD, so, it was pretty fuzzy at some parts, (sorta like if you stay on 360p in the widerscreen option here on Youtube.) So, I realized that even though I have a smaller TV, the image is clearer for non-HD TV.
What frustrates me is that I have a 58 inch HD widescreen TV and some "widescreen" movies still make black bars on the top and bottom, (so they are wider than our tv) when you pay that much money on a great tv, and then the black bars...
here in australia when we watch and american tv show in HDMI it has the black lines down the side but you change it so its off HDMI and the black lines go away but its not clear and u lose about 25%
I hate not being able to see the whole picture, therefore I hate full screen. The black bars don't bother me if I get to see the whole picture. Then again, I don't own a TV so it doesn't even matter.
velvetgrapefruit > Removing the black bars means zooming in on the image. When this is done the edges of the images are cut from the screen.
Black bars on top and bottom allow the viewer to see 100% of what the filmmaker intended them to see, if the film was originally shot in widescreen.
When converted to fullscreen, sometimes characters or elements within the frame that enhance the artistry of the shot are actually cut out because they are that close to the edge.
actualy (certainly in england), the vast majority of TV is 4:3, and i have a 16:9 display. so i just set it to show all 4:3 with the black bars on the left n right, and then automaticaly fill the screen when 16:9 content is being viewed. i think that people buying 16:9 tvs should be aware that its realy only movies that are shot in widescreen, whereas tv shows tend to be 4:3
Quite frankly, I never know what I have until I pop it in the DVD player! It doesn't matter to me since the movies are geared to point your eyes where to look little sidebars aren't important. If I am watching a play on DVD, that has to be in widescreen so that I can see the whole stage.
i'd google this but i don't even know what to type in. what did you mean when you said that if you take off the top and bottom black bars then it'd take away 25% of the image? this grapefruit's brain feels quite velvety.
21:9 tvs are the best tho! cant beat em... all the best films fit the screen completely from how they were recorded originally - so no black bars and no zoom!
