I see. Thanks for explaining. But yeah, it looks like Europeans must be good at squintingI don't like how the IS2 feeds are letterboxed though. I mean it's a 4:3 aspect ratio, and you have black bars filling nearly half of the screen. I mean those who have those tiny SDTVs, good luck reading the tiny letters!
There's only so much you can do when there are different aspect ratios. The transition from black-and-white to color wasn't so jarring because people could continue using their old black-and-white sets for as long as they wanted, and the only difference would be the lack of color. But digital television is an entirely different animal, and there comes a time when people are just going to have to adapt or be left behind.
I'm honestly surprised the 4:3 safe zone is still being used so much these days. In most European countries, for example, they gave up with that long ago and now people with SD sets just have to get used to everything being letterboxed. And also keep in mind that the average European lives in smaller quarters than the average American, which means TV sets are generally smaller, too.
In Norfolk, VA the feed for AccuWeather HD went down. Anyone else having this problem, or just me?My feed is just fine
