What Zoom ratios does your DVD player offer? The least mine will do is 2X,
but something less is needed. I really don't know which DVD players offer
those smaller Zoom ratios, but would like to find out. With my 4:3 screen I
believe 1.5X would be about right. Maybe with your 16:9 screen, 1.2X or 1.3X
would work OK.
