I will be including every detail you need in my next big post.
Regarding the anamorphic issue...what would happen if you watched your clips on this TV?

Star Wars is 21:9 not 16:9, so is this HDTV. An anamorphic disk played on this TV would look fine since the black bars are not included in the video information. The video information would simply fill the space given. Isn't that the point of anamorphic?
