I am astounded that hotels I visit in the USA have beautiful widescreen
Tvs in the rooms, restaurants, etc., and almost always they receive only
Standard definition channels and have the TV setup so that the picture
is stretched. I have tried changing the TV setting with the remote,
which can be done, but when powering on next time it reverts to
stretch-o-vision. Most people I speak to do not notice anything wrong
with the picture.
