Just a thought,


has anyone made/bought a lens or prism system that you can mount in front of your 4:3 projector, to make the picture 16:9?


If my calculations are right you would want a lens/prism combination that shrink the height by a factor 1.333


This way I could play my DVD:s on my HTPC in 1024 x 768 16:9 format, since PowerDVD can play movies using the whole of the screen. That would be nice.

Yup, these lenses range from a few hundred (B-Stock or used) to well over a thousand. See the "... Panamorh ..." sticky.

For search purposes, the correct spelling is "Panamorph".
