Probably why it didn't stick out to me.

Paul, the attitude isn't necessary. I'm not Matt or Tyler, I don't play favorites. You'll be out of here just as fast as anyone else would be.

did anyone catch day planner today, i forgot what hour it was, probably the 10 o'clock hour (central) but kevin was talking about the mid-western radar and two ladies walked infront of the green screen, he was not standing at it...they soon moved out of the way and he stepped in.

I think that was supposed to happen, because Forecast Earth is now airing in HD for HD viewers (according to Spring Rubber), and it is letterboxed for SD viewers. It's possible for them to have used a non-HD ready shot in FE, which would result in the pillar boxes to be shown.

Oh okay. Thanks for explaining to me what is going on, Stephen.

However, I don't think that The Weather Channel should show the letterboxed format on the SD feed and then add the side panels to make the "viewing window" even smaller. It just doesn't make it as watchable. I don't see this problem with Epic Conditions and When Weather Changed History, but why Forecast Earth?

Probably why it didn't stick out to me.

Paul, the attitude isn't necessary. I'm not Matt or Tyler, I don't play favorites. You'll be out of here just as fast as anyone else would be.

Ummm, what impression did you get that anybody "play favorites"?
Can you explain where that "out of left field" statement came from?

Just because I responded to your post doesn't mean I'm giving you an attitude. I don't in the least appreciate you making such a threat to ban me because why, it was in a way that's not to your liking? If you have an issue with me, drop me a PM. I'm adult in comparison to most posters here and I won't tolerate being publicly talked to in that manner.

At the same time, I am the least of your problems or worries.

Just now, the last 15 seconds or so of the Health segment cut off, likely caused by problems with the opener at the beginning.

Right now on Weather Center, they're showing another HD map, with titlebar and a few cities cut off the edges.

No one noticed it, but here it goes:

At the start of the 8 PM ET Hour of A&B on June 2, 2008; at the beginning of the show, mike said "Check your local..Uh..Dealer" then later he said "Dealer?...Guess it has to do something by car", then he said it normal, "Check your local listings"

It's been doing that all week; I've already reported it to the STAR Team.

Indeed; they adjusted the camera for her height instead of for the screen; bad move.
