This review is from: Best of Riverdance (DVD)

NOTE: this is PAL format. Some bluray and dvd players won't be able to play it.

The content of this disc is good. I like how they used multiple performances for a given song/dance.

Unfortunately, the picture quality is poor: grainy and low-resolution.

This DVD is actually fullscreen format.

On a full screen tv, there will be bars on the top and bottom of the picture.

On a widescreen tv, there will be bars on all four sides, if you set the

Picture Size to 4:3 to view the movie with the proper aspect ratio.

Depending on the player and the tv's capabilities, you may be able to

choose a picture size that will at least eliminate the bars on the left and

right sides of the picture - while preserving the aspect ratio.

My widescreen tv will only do this, via picture size 'Zoom1', if I lower the

resolution by using a DVD player without 1080 upscaling. This entails using

component video or other lower-resolution inputs instead of HDMI input.
