Question on blue ray player? Tried first blue ray movie and there are black bars on top and bottom. We set Player default to 16:9 mode. When we used that with normal widescreen DVD it took up whole screen? We thought our TV would display all widescreen, full on screen with no bars but still show all viewable content? Do we have the wrong settings?

By the way, DVDs look excellent on this TV! I can't imagine living without it. We love the size of screen and can't imagine anything smaller.

We look forward to seeing what regular and HD channels look like after HD gets installed.
