Well I think I can solve your problem . wink

The 15:4 is two times what you want.For you Id go 18:6 plus the ratio of 5.If you want clarity,though,Id go with 14:6/5
,but thats just me.If you want the sound to match your picture go with 19:6&6/6.
If you want perfection go with and everything,go for 13:4 then 12:8 just like everyone else in the world.Hope this helped wink

I have no idea what M4M is talking about, and sorry it's confusing and not very helpful rolleyes but...

The DVD Collection is only in widescreen, and on a normal (working) TV it will play with the black bars above and below.

Only on a 16x9 TV should it fill the screen, but that's a $5000 TV that most of us don't have.

If you have a standard TV and you don't see the black bars, try it on another TV. Yours may need adjustment....
