   TV in the hotel room:
   
   wrong aspect ratio
   cropped picture
   soap opera smoothing turned on
   paramount is censoring the movie
   as much commercials as movie
   
   anyone who can tolerate this barely qualifies as human

     Let me guess... Hotel TV is a flat-screen hooked up over RF?

     @sun Funny, I usually enable game mode by default on my TVs and disable all the processing, regardless of source.
     I'm guessing the hotels just leave their TVs on the factory defaults and hook the usual closed-circuit hospitality gubbins on there.
     I recall during the SDTV era there was a hospitality gateway that mixed specific channels in with the signal of the room's client box, each box modulating on a channel too.
     The only thing stopping you from removing the Lodgenet client from the TV was a coaxial lock.
