OK, so the blank space is for an ad. :D

What I don't understand is what is going to happen with during 16% HD. Can the LDA be local because how can the LDA be on the National Feed but not the Local Feed if a 16% LDL is going to be used with the Local Feed (unless BOTH the 33% and 16% LDLs will be shown WITH the LDA).

The LDA is intended to show national information while the LDL displays local information.

Quick Q: I live outside of Charleston, SC and I have never seen this ldl bar on the left side of my screen. Why is that?

Was the LDA re-added per viewer requests?

I don't get why they even bothered to create a ldl if they were just going to use it for a month

This is on TWC HD only
I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

You might be right there, Mike. :yes: Now I don't see why viewers would prefer the LDA over the LDL, unless they really like the fact that the LDA provides slightly more information, like a radar. :thinking:

The small ldl instead of the sidebar is being used during "red" hurricane coverage it looks like.

No me gusta at all folks, I agree fully with Martins quote of screwing us out of the 16:9 image.

Yeah I Totally agree.
