Why would you have 5 bars of reception on the tv then there is no picture and a message says no signal.....a second ago there was a beautiful photo....What causes that??

That's true, except the actual ratios are backwards. The old TV (and before that, for many years, movie) aspect ratio was 4:3, the newer (wider) HDTV format is 16:9. Widescreen movie systems vary some in what their aspect ratios are...
oops. shame on me for getting that mixed up. thanks. :S
