I'm very annoyed at PBS lately: they are not putting Chyron titles where I can read them! Titles are half off the side of the screen, so they are useless to me. I've noticed this problem on two shows: the kids' show Electric Company (the reboot of EC is really not good; their costume designer should be fired and they need less supernatural weirdness and more normalcy in the stories) and Great Performances at the Met. I don't watch PBS nightly so I'm not sure if every show has this problem. I can't be the only person in the audience who doesn't have a wide screen television. Why don't they letterbox the presentation? Do they really get more complaints about letterboxing than about half the titles being unreadable? I remember in 1996 or 1997 attending a seminar for broadcasters regarding HDTV, where the presenter emphasized protecting the 4x3, while finding a way to use the 16x9. I haven't noticed this problem on any other network.why can't PBS get their act together? Karla S. Robinson, Ph.D. karlasrobin...@zoominternet.net
