Another TWC complaint

More and more I'm hating the User Interface that TWC has given us.  It allows you to select your screen size as 4/3 or 16/9 but this is independant of the Stretch/Zoom options.  So if you have Zoom on for 4/3 channels to fill your screen, when you go to a 16/9 channel, it is also zoomed.  So you are constantly going and changing the picture aspects.  

Just a very pathetic attempt at software.  Can't wait until Uverse is available here.  It's available all around me in Cedarburg, but not in my neighborhood.  I think they did all the underground served customers first and will do the overhead wiring customers later, even though I'm only 4 blocks from the Central Office.  You would think they would have a IP router right there to serve me.  Oh well, I'll just wait I guess.

I agree it is kinda of a annoyance, but you can just hit the enter button(#) and scroll  zoom, stretch ,box no?

Gregg, make them a deal they can't refuse - or send Paul S. over to "do your bidding" to get U-Verse to your home!:rock:

Seems you want more HD channels and you're getting frustated with TWC BS, er HD.;)

At least your area is getting wired vs. ours which is still in "negotiations".:(
