Dear Philips,
it’s been a long time since I complained loudly. But it’s necessary (again). This time the buzzwords are: _correct_ aspect ratio, Philips TV Remote App, IP-EPG, SD broadcasts
Short introduction what _correct_ aspect ratio means. Means, that the original image content aspect ratio is _not_ changed when displaying it: content is _not_ stretched or compressed. So, why do your products still have issues to display content with a correct aspect ratio?
Let me give you two examples:
- Your Philips TV Remote App (Android version)… Did you ever used this ugly app in combination with your Wifi SmartScreen feature to display the TV broadcast on a tablet or smartphone? And not only with HD channels? Please, take a look at SD broadcasts! Why are you not able to display 16:9 SD content with the correct aspect ratio?
- Your IP-EPG… You know, that still 4:3 SD broadcasts exist? And you know, that the IP-EPG has a little small PIP window with the current broadcast? Did you ever take a look how content is displayed? I know, that 16:9 is working with the correct aspect ratio. But SD broadcasts with 4:3 aspect ratio are stretched to 16:9! Why cannot you fix that? The IP-EPG does have this problem since at least 5 years!
Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t the GUI one of the most important connection/interface to your customers? If yes, why are you ignoring such issue for such a long time?
So please, invest 2 hours to fix that! It’s not rocket science!
