OK, I just got a Sony 51HW40 and a Sony 755 DVD progressive scan DVD player. I set the DVD player to progressive and hooked it up via component to the set.
The problem is, whenever I play anamorphic discs, I still get letterboxing on the top & bottom. I was under the impression that anamorphic filled the screen. When I turn the "Zoom" feature on, the picture fills the screen but I though it was supposed to fill the screen in "full" mode. I may be totally off on the anamorphic feature, i.e. 2.35:1 movies still get slight letterboxing.
Additionally, the TV won't let me set the DRC, i.e. Cinemotion, Progressive or Interlaced. When I enter setup, it is set to Interlaced but the option is greyed out. Any ideas? I want to make sure I'm actually displaying a progressive signal. I'm thinking this feature is for interlaced signals only but I want to make sure.
By the way, the picture looks absolutely fantastic and I haven't even tweaked my system with Avia yet.
