Why can't I duplicate laptop's screen to HdTv?

Why do they make wide screen for wide screen hdtv's?

  • I have a 16:9 HDTV, I have a PS3 that plays blu-ray. Why when I play movies they are in wide screen with the black bars on top a bottom, shouldn't they go away since my tv is wide screen. Do I still need to Buy the Full Screen Edition to get rid of the black bars? so I am watching my movies in WideScreen Widescreen with a weird ratio.

  • Answer:

    Movies are filmed in a different aspect ratio, wider compared to the 16:9 video aspect. Thus the top and bottom bars.
