Your DVD player may have a setting for this. Some can "ZOOM" the
picture so that it fills an SDTV. Generally, if you want a fullscreen
image, you shoudl buy the fullscreen DVD. Personaly (and many people
feel this way), youshould just get used to the black bars and enjoy the
full pictue of the movie.
