Does this TV have a feature where you can expand the picture to fill the entire screen? (instead of large horizontal black bands at the top and bottom

Yes it does. Some channels only have the regular tv format. If the channel you are watching only broadcasts in that format then it con only be shown that way. Push the picture button on the remote then push the picture size to 16.9 aspect ration arrow up 2 postitons then left or right cursor.

Unfortunately, no it does not. I'm not really sure why they left the Pip feature off the tv. You can watch tv in the upper hand corner when your browsing the web though, but as far as dual operating screens they did not add that feature. It is a pretty good tv though. Hope that helps.

I have a 55 inch sony & a 48 inch Lg, there is no issues with full screen images.

yes it does... NOT all the options are usable unless the TV is Vizio Brand. Same thing with Sony and many others.

Yes, but don't expect a clear image on the tv. I returned the one I bought because it was unacceptable.

No, it doesn't. There is a slot for some sort of card related to TV, but it is unoccupied.

Yes it does. This 19 inch screen is better than a TV also. I'm going to buy another.

No it does not. It's a pretty basic tv. It has pretty good picture quality and has a large amount of inputs in the back for multiple items. I have a computer, ps3, blue ray player, DVD player my cable and still have more I could hook up. The only issue I have with it is the sound quality. It does not have very good sound. It's not terrible but definitely not premium.

I have ToC on my 46" Samsung, and it isn't unless you stand right next to it. Or the light hits the TV in the right way. Yeah, it's there, but it's by far NOT the predominant color you see.

During the Quick Setup it asks you if your using an antenna or cable input. Make a choice and complete the setup. It will then scan the cable for the channels. I am not aware of the any black bands other than those created to fill in the right and left of the picture. Use the "view mode" to increase the size of the picture (stretch). I hope this helped.

Overscan using catalyst control center. That's how I get full screen on my LED TV.

Yes it does... But the picture is not as good as if you use the HDMI inputs.

yes it does. you get black bars on the side. if you leave it in 16:9 mode, when you watch standard definition channels you automatically get the black bars on the side. the picture is sort of grainy though...it's not as clear as a standard tv when watching standard programs. only when you watch HD will you see a dramatic difference.

I don't know if it's the same as my TV, but on my TV's remote there is a format button next to the MUTE button that will widen the picture.

You're using an 'extended desktop'. Drag what you'd like to view upwards (the default setting) to your tv.

I use a displayport cable for the best quality. When reduced to 1920x1080 it still takes up the whole screen and somewhat stretched the image out. I dont think its possible to put black bars on the side

You can adjust the aspect ratio so that it fills the entire screen, but that would distort the picture somewhat. I like to put it in 4:3 mode, so it looks like a normal picture. Burn-in warnings be damned! But you'll be watching the important stuff through the HD air antenna anyway. I think the SD picture is just okay. It's a bit pixelated (probably because of the size of the TV) and the colors don't seem as sharp as my 23-year old Sony Trinitron. Once you see the HD picture, SD will look that much worse.
