Need recommendations - player supporting letterbox for pj use
Hey folks!
I have an H30 projector that i absolutely love, but my dvd player (low cost JVC model), has been ruining the experience due to the judder/jerky camera pan sequences. I need suggestions for a replacement that meet the following criteria:
1) No judder. I'm trying to get away from the jerkiness of camera panning a skyline or crowd.
2) DVD Player needs Letterbox support so I can watch non-anamorphic titles properly using my projector. (My H30 is running older firmware which doesn't have letterbox support built-in.)
3) Preference to a single-disc dvd player.
Thanks for ANY help you can provide!
My wife slapping the back of my head after seeing the judder effect yet again during a viewing of Scorpion King the other night has made this purchase necessary.

I was told the Faroudja chipped players, for the most part, don't support my letterbox needs on non-anamorphic titles, so I'm pretty much confined to the JVC or Panasonic brands unfortunately. My existing JVC has judder issues so I think trying a pany out might be my best option.
