Disappointed with Liteon LVD-2001

[iluvJLO]

I've spent all night messing with this thing and here are the problems. The remote is slow. It has a delayed reaction and sometimes I have to push a button twice to get it to work. That's not much of a problem, my main concern was Divx and SVCD playback. I updated the firmware to 227 and tried several div3 encodes that played fine until I ran into a div3 encode with audio at 320kbits. It stuttered the video every few seconds but the audio was fine. The video on all my divx have the wrong Aspect ratios. Whether I use 2.35:1 or 1.85:1 divx/xvids, they all play stretched on the top and the bottom. It has a slight black board on the top and even less on the botom, even on 2.35:1 movies. I tried all the options, 4:3 P&S, 4:3 LBX, and 16:9, even the P-Scan function wont fix the AR. Does anyone know how to fix this? It's pissing me off. Now to the DVD's. It has excellent picture quality. Sharp and crisp but the problem is, for instance on Terminator 2 Ultimate Edition. When I play it, its a 2.35:1 film, the black bars are on the top and the bottom, but under the black bars are greyish/black bars also and then under that is the actual film. That grey/black bar under the top black bars are supposed to be completely black like they are on a PC DVD. So, I don't know what the hells up with that either. And then theres the SVCD. I tried Terminator 3 replicas telecine version, and on my PC it's uncropped. On the liteon, in the beginning credits, the left hand side the names get cut off. Now I dont know if thats a Liteon problem or my TV picture stretched more wide or what. I'll try on a different TV to see. The interface isn't very user friendly either. It's kind of hard to naviate through everything, and sometimes the player just completely freezes and you have to unplug it, then plug it back in to get it to work. Well, overall, you can see I'm not too happy. If anyone knows how to fix the AR on divx/xvids, and those grey bars on DVD's, please inform me

Terminator 3 is warez. As in it is illegal, so don't discuss it on the forum. If you have a DVD Player problem you can ask it, but do not ask regarding warez titles.
