What is letterbox widescreen?
Letterbox widescreen (sometimes referred to as LBX) is a method of preserving the rectangular image of a widescreen presentation.Unfortunately, letterboxed presentations (depending on the aspect ratio) do not always reach the sides (left and right) of viewable screen on a widescreen TV set, prompting the need for viewers to use the 16:9 or ?Zoom? feature of their DVD player or TV to expand the image causing a loss of resolution. This issue relates only to widescreen TVs.
