OK boys.......I am sick of my projector playing different format sizes. I was told Lumagen will do this for me. Anyone confirm?
Some 1080p is played too thin of a vertical and would like to see full size every time.

What are the aspect ratios of the films you are projecting? If one is 1.85:1 and the next 2.35:1 then scaled or not the vertical on screen size will be different. Unless you mean to crop the sides of the 2.35 images to fit a 16:9 screen?

Jerermy's right...

Aspect ratios (like 16x9 or 2.35:1) have nothing to do with resolution. They're completely different things. Just like paintings, movies come in different shapes and sizes (called aspect ratios).

What exactly are you trying to do? It's not clear what you mean when you say "I am sick of my projector playing different format sizes."
