OAR means Original Aspect Ratio. The question meant, do the movies on STARZ HD play in their Original Aspect Ratio.

The best way to find that out is watch it and look up the movie at

www.imbd.com

Click on DVD details on the left side. It will take a 2.35 native AR to find out if they are cropping. 1.85 will fill out the screen.

If you were wondering prior to subscribing sorry, can't help you, don't get it.

Thanks,
