I have a few questions regarding the visible display on a widescreen TV under different circumstances. Using cable (analog) as my source, what exactly will I see ( by 'see' I mean will there be blank space above/below , will the screen be filled, will I see more detail than on a 4:3 screen for the same program)on the screen when:
1. watching The Today show or live sports
2. watching The Sopranos on HBO in widescreen format
3. watching a rental tape movie
4. watching a DVD
5. any other sources
The TV would have the ability to switch formats such as Sony calls it "Enhanced" or some other catch phrase.
I hope I made myself clear-if not, advise.
