Fox 5 no longer in 16:9 on TWC?
 

I live in New York City and have Time Warner Cable Digital/HD service. I was
getting many Fox 5 broadcasts in HD 16:9 (like Malcom in the Middle).
Although I still get fox on the HD channel (705) I am no longer getting it
in 16:9 although the broadcast says 'wide screen where available'. All other
offered HD channels are still in widescreen.

Is TWC having difficulties with this channel, or is my problem elsewhere.

Thanks

You might want to pose your question over at the www.avsforum.com forum for
"Local HDTV Info and Reception". Each major HD viewing area is represented
there.
YMMV

I've got the same situation with the Minneapolis FOX station. I have both
a SA 3100HD cable box and a samsung OTA tuner. They both are the same in
that they are not in 16:9 when it says they are...
