RE: Q: Letterbox - How do I eliminate it?

Thanks all for your responses.
I`ve got a Panasonic 32PK1F... It has an `auto` function to maximise the image on screen. However, it didn`t stretch the picture on "The Matrix"... I guess I`ll have to live with it.
Thanks anyway...

Q: Letterbox - How do I eliminate it?

Hi:
I just bought a Philips 711 dvd player and my 1st movie ("The Matrix"). I also rented "Saving Private Ryan".
Why is it that "The Matrix" shows these annoying letterbox black horizontal lines whilst "Saving Private Ryan" fills the whole of my 32" 16/9 screen nicely? Is this inherent to the movie or can it be disabled?
Sorry for my ignorance but I`m new to the matter and appreciate all the help I can get.
Cheers,

RE: New Philips 711 already hacked?

Hi,
Yeah, it was a promotion (should still last a couple of days). I paid 9999 BF for it....

RE: New Philips 711 already hacked?

I live in Belgium and got it from a wholesaler called BIGGS (something like a Tesco or a Dixon, I believe).
I`m very impressed with the picture and sound quality of the DVD711 (but I`m no tech expert - show me any DVD player in action and I`ll be blown away!). The one thing I don`t like is its on-screen interface: it`s not very intuitive. Otherwise it`s a very good budget player (I paid mine £159 hacked and all!)

New Philips 711 already hacked?

Hi all:
I just bought a Philips dvd711 and to my suprise, when opening the box, I found a photocopied green sheet of paper which said that this particular model was a multi-region player, and that no remote hack was necessary.
Unfortunately I don`t have any Region 1 dvds to test this out with.
How is this possible? Anyone else have this?
Thanks.

RE: PHILIPS 950 or 701 ???

Thanks for your help! It`s appreciated. Yep, I`ll probably go for the 701.
Thanks...

RE: PHILIPS 950 or 701 ???

Thanks for the reply! But I`m still not 100% convinced... The specs of the 950 are pretty good. But like you say it`s a older model and i don`t know what the 701`s specs are like. Hmmm... if anyone else has an opinion, please do not hesitate! Thanks.

RE: PHILIPS 950 or 701 ???

There must be someone who`s got some info on these models? Which one should I go for? Please anyone?

PHILIPS 950 or 701 ???

I`m a DVD newbie and was wondering whether I should go for the Philips 950 (which is an older model and more expensive) or the new 701 model? Is the £75 price difference worth it? Is the new 701 hackable? Any info is greatly appreciated.
