I bought 'Heat' too, but when I play that, the picture fills the whole screen.
I played Casino on stardard crt and dvd player and it appears with black bands on top and bottom.

Any ideas?

as you can see my nice digram doesnt display.....

casino displays with black bands on top and bottom AND at the sides too!

casino ratio 2.35 : 1

Thx

Update

Yes, upscale Fullscreen stretches the picture <- -> to fill the sides. This distorts the picture making people seem fat. This can be resolved by going into the TV settings and pressing Zoom, which stretches the picture ^ up and down.

BTW, i was talking about the greasy italian Casino, not the blue eyed secret agent one.
