Yeah, I’ve looked at a couple more write-ups (and videos) on the subject, and it seems that the higher-spec projectors have an inbuilt v-stretch mode that fills the 16:9 image with the 2.35:1 source, so it’s all ready for an anamorphic lens to restore the full width. No need to mess with re-encodes in that case.
