Currious about these two channels.
When the Knicks, Rangers, Devils, etc. are home and being broadcast on MSG-HD and/or FSNY-HD they are in High-Def. widescreen format on these channels. (Pic. looks great)
But when they are playing an away game, they are shown in 4:3 format on these channels but the picture quality is still far better then on the NON-HD MSG & NON-HD FSNY channels feed.
Question is: What format is in on the HD channels when the teams are "away"? Is it still 1080i but 4:3?
Should I watch with the black bars or have the STB downconvert it to 480p and watch the games "stretched"?
Thanks
