Default Panny DB55 problem

I just purchased a Panasonic DMP-BD55 Blu-Ray player & am having a strange problem. I am watching the Dark Knight Blu-Ray DVD on a Panasonic 50" 1080P plasma & the display will, at times display the movie in 16x9 and at others in letterbox. Once you notice, it is disconcerting. I have played other Blu-Rays & have not noticed this behaviour.

Any Thoughts?

There's nothing wrong with your player. This was an intentional decision by the producers to alternate between the sidescreen and Imax presentations. See

With all the split screen effects we get with shoes like CSI Miami and others, it shouldn't be all that distracting. Depends on each viewer, I guess.
