Hi,
My old VHS video player died on me recently so I decided to take a look at DVD players. In the end I opted for a combi DVD/VCR (Toshiba SD-22VB). I have a normal TV with one scart input.
I'm a total beginner in this field so sorry if this is all a little basic
1) I noticed that DVD's are all in widescreen format. What is anamorphic wide screen format?
2) All DVD's played back on my TV have black bars top and bottom, sometimes reducing the movie size to half the screen. Is my only way out of this to buy a widescreen TV, or is there a trick to get DVD movies to fill a normal (4:3) size TV screen.
3) In the DVD menu sceen I can select Video or RGB output. What are these and what one is best?
many thanks for any advise given
