    Otherwise DVD playback works fine, but I haven't found a way to playback anamorphic DVDs in anamorphic mode. Instead MP seems to always convert the video to "non-anamorphic", and then I have to use zoom mode in the projector and thus the resolution will be low.

    How to solve this? Switching aspect ratio in MP doesn't help.

    I have used MPV&MPA. With PDVD7 I've been unable to get DVD playback to work. Either the video is playing very slow or then at a very fast speed?

    When I stop DVD playback, the part of the display where video was shown (if 16:9) stays black and only part of the MP menu is shown in the top and bottom, and I have to restart MP.
