yeah, the logo on the new hd ldl is not 16:9 safe and the "om" in .com is cut off.

but based off of the pictures on the first page it is 16:9 safe. it was also said that the logo position hasn't changed on the HD feed, but based off of these pictures i took today...the logo shifted (on the new LDL)

i'm not really sure how to explain it...

They need to learn about overscan areas. It's just as bad on the large national SD LDL where the ".com" is cut off on most TVs.

I noticed that as well...and it's only on the new LDL.  The old logos (both SD and HD) were in the right location but the new logos are too far to the right and get cut off.  TWC should have kept the HD LDL that is used on the LOT8s.  It's cleaner, it has pertinent information, fits with TWC's graphic set and it just looks good.  *shrug*

They should find a place to add a clock, IMO. Maybe under the ad or somewhere near the TWC logo?

The "m" in ".com" is cut off on both SD LDLs on my TV.

Uhhh...wtf? They're displaying a Storm Stories ad in the corner on top of the LDA's radar. Is this a simple mistake, or is this a sign of changes ahead?

I'm guessing it's just a simple mistake given that the language around here suggests that nothing is going to change in the immediate future, but it's worth speculating. :P

I really need to start watching channel 245 again. Always leave my tuner on channel 36, by force of habit :P

What times have people seen the new LDL? I need to see it on my tuner (no HDTVs in the house). As for the ad, it sounds like a mistake to me too, but again, I haven't watched TWC [HD] much lately.

You'll see it during long form and these shows WUWA, YWT, 7pm WC, WV, and WN.

No LDA or LDL for the first segment of Day Planner today. A blank black LDA just turned on during the commercials.

This is like most new technology when it comes out. Modifications will be made as bugs are ironed out. I agree that the LDL that is already on the HD LF should be used "channel-wide", if you know what I mean, but I think the one that is used during programming is fine. Just needs a clock.
