PBS is placing all of their SD formatting eggs in the AFD basket.
Their immediate goal is to have every program AFD encoded. The
ultimate goal is to have all content AFD encoded scene-by-scene, and
have station sat receivers who are outputting SD perform the
appropriate action (center cut or letterbox) on a scene-by-scene basis.
PBS also has hopes of this scene-by-scene AFD program encoding
surviving each station's HD acquisition/distribution/emission chain,
so that cable operators can use AFD aware ATSC receivers at their head
ends for the HD to SD downconversion on their cable systems.
I wish them (us) all the best in that pursuit.

Alas, no.
PBS has no commercials. I serve on the PBS HD Quality Group. We
discuss many issues and often achieve unanimity. But when it comes
to letterbox for widescreen content for 4:3 TVs I am in the minority
on the group. It is probably our most-contentious issue. I have had
to bring in support from directors and producers to keep PBS from
banning letterbox.
TTFN,
Mark
