Quick "House, M.D." DVD question
I heard the DVD transfer wasn't in anamorphic, so I'll get the letterbox format while watching it on my HDTV?
That's what it will look right correct?

Your picture looks like a 2.35:1 anamorphic displayed on a 1.78:1 screen.

Use the Zoom mode and the picture will fill a 16:9 screen. Picture quality will be inferior to an anamorphic disc, however.

I was thinking of gettig this, missed it pretty much on TV, but did catch an episode the other night and thought it was pretty good, but without enhancement it is a no sale for me. At this point in DVD, that is just inexcusable.
