COZI TV Cox Ch. 85 Issue...

[Unregistered]

This channel does not broadcast in HD...or at least cox does not provide it in HD.

To avoid the vertical black bars, I use my HD zoom to stretch/fill out the picture.

This morning (Tues) was watching THE LONE RANGER and ZORRO (yes, fond childhood memories),

and thepicture was in the 4:3 fromat. no matter what i tried, I could not fill out the screen.

Anyone know why? Any recourse?

Thanks.

COZI TV doesn't broadcast in HD. There's nothing wrong.

OK. But can you explain why I can no longer stretch/fill the picture to fit the TV screen.

Doesn't matter what I settings I try, I just get a 4:3 picture with black bars on both sides of screen on COZI.

This is the same today. On other channels, like ME-TV, for example, I am able to stretch/fill screen without a problem.

Has COZI changed something in how they are sending their broadcast to Cox? I'm not sure this is a Cox issue.

Thanks.

Probably has more to do with your TV than the channel. Does it work on other SD channels?

Cox probably has their encoder set up improperly. Call them and complain.
