I'm sure that someone out there can explain this to me...
When I watch a letterboxed DVD, the right side of the frame gets cut off. I noticed this on my copy of Criterion's 3 WOMEN. I thought perhaps it was a poor transfer, but when I played it on my computer, I saw the entire image.
I tried the different settings on my DVD player (4:3 Letterbox; 4:3 Pan and Scan; 16:9), but none of them corrected the problem.
I don't have a widescreen TV, so I'm wondering if that's the problem. Or perhaps the problem is my DVD player. Are there older models that cannot "handle" anamorphic DVDs?
Any answers would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
John
