I recently purchased a new Pioneer DV-270 DVD player.
I've noticed that with some 16:9 movies that the first and last picture lines are incomplete.
The first line starts about 1/3 of the way across (from left to right) and the last line finishes about 1/3 across as well.

My old Philips player doesn't produce this problem. Perhaps the Philips simple isn't showing the 1st and last lines of the picture because they are incomplete.

Ideas ?
I can post pics later if needed.
