Spaceman Spiff Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 I find it funny that they have to work stiffer now because of the HD cameras, yet HBK is in the 1st match.
EVIL~! alkeiper Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 It looks exactly the same on my SDTV tv. Might not be as nice as the HD version, but hey look, I have money I didn't waste!
Spaceman Spiff Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Anyone have any idea why all I'm getting is a black screen on USA? They are still broadcasting in regular def as well aren't they? In honor of MLK, Jr. day.
Exslade ZX Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Oww.....he just pulled out a chunk of hair.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 The widescreen makes the ring look bigger. They probably moved the cameras up so they kept the same amount of ring on screen but it still looks bigger.
Conspiracy_Victim Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Anyone have any idea why all I'm getting is a black screen on USA? They are still broadcasting in regular def as well aren't they? In honor of MLK, Jr. day. I have a dream... That I would be able to watch the first RAW on the new set.
TSA09 Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Anyone have any idea why all I'm getting is a black screen on USA? They are still broadcasting in regular def as well aren't they? Do you have Comcast? We have Dish Network and our feed is coming in fine over here.
claydude14 Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 I kinda feel the wide shots in SD don't show as much of the ring as they used to. Like it used to be rope to rope, now it's slightly less.

NYU Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Marvin, how could you even see what's happening on Raw if you already ejaculated all over the screen?
MarvinisaLunatic Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 I kinda feel the wide shots in SD don't show as much of the ring as they used to. Like it used to be rope to rope, now it's slightly less. thats exactly what I figured. They moved the camera up further to maintain the same amount of ring that used to be viewable in SD now in HD but in the process cut off more of the ring for people watching in 4:3. Which isn't what the NBA/NFL/MLB do since it alienates the 4:3 sd viewers by giving them less vision of the playing field..so..
Spaceman Spiff Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 I've got Comcast, and there's no problem here watching Raw in lo-def (aside from actually having to sit through an entire Raw).
Prophet of Mike Zagurski Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 I'm watching Raw in SD and I think the picture quality improved. I saw the cut near Kennedy's head. I can capture Smackdown HD pictures on Friday.
NYU Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 So wait, is there actual wrestling going on or are they simply showing Jim Ross in HD in all his Bells Palsy glory?
Exslade ZX Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Yea, it is pretty cut off. Didn't think it would be that much of a difference, but when they just got on the turnbuckle and started fighting, you could barely see what was going on.
Kizzo Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 The widescreen makes the ring look bigger. They probably moved the cameras up so they kept the same amount of ring on screen but it still looks bigger. Yeah.. It does make it look better. Aside from the macroblocking(which is expected) it looks very good. Hopefully they will work out some the kinks as they broadcast more shows.
TheFranchise Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Michaels over clean? Not a good start to the year for Kennedy.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 I just noticed the WWF logo is actually a statue..hmm
The Niggardly King Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 I find it funny that they have to work stiffer now because of the HD cameras, yet HBK is in the 1st match. He likes to work snug, so it makes sense
MarvinisaLunatic Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 I like how Jeffs head is right over Orton in that shot.. Plus you can read the text on the magazine.
The Niggardly King Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 I imagine Snitsky to be featured heavily tonight and maybe another week or two due to JR and King putting over just how uglier he'll look in HD last week. That's really all they talked about during his appearance.
MarvinisaLunatic Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 beth phoenix is the first diva in hd lol
Ravenbomb Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Oh, lord, JR's Skittle-gasm is back...
TheFranchise Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Only to be outdone by the 'beauty' of Mickie. God damn it. Where's my Maria.
The Niggardly King Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 How do the divas look in HD
Exslade ZX Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 So how's that ass crack in HD? >_> Yea, that was just bad.
TheFranchise Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 A lot of movement in the crowd during this match.
boobshaw Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Wow, are we listening to 1950s commentators? "That's smarts" "That's smarts indeed King"
