Elite’s Solution: Instead of using two screens, why not combine 2-different projection surfaces, one 16:9 and the other 2.35:1 into a single unit? This will present a 12mm spacing between the two projector materials so that depth distortion is negated.They will also present a depth distortion issue since there is more than 20mm of offset between the alternating projection surfaces. It is also difficult to align them both let alone coordinate their drop-rise action. The drawbacks are that buying two screens is a pricey solution.The benefit is that you will have two dedicated projection screens that can be alternated to work with whichever projector aspect ratio you are on.

You can try to find two screens, one 16:9 and one 2.35:1 in matching widths and install them together. Run two screens of different aspect ratios in tandem: They are also prone to malfunction and are costly to fix. The drawbacks are that multi-masking screens are that these are custom built as special order products at a prohibitively high cost.Their format will change with the push of a button on your remote. The benefit is that they never need to be moved or manually adjusted.These are specially made products designed to accommodate the various aspect ratios that projectors have. It will only ruin the screen.īuy a Custom Auto-Masking Projection Screen: This also works for frame screens but not retractable models. The drawbacks are that screen materials are not designed to come into regular contact with foreign objects will eventually stretch out the screen material.The benefit is that it’s a relatively cost effective solution that holds in place through the friction of being stuck between the taut screen material and the frame itself.This incorporates a rigid but lightweight material such as cardstock surfaced by a black Velvet fabric. It is also good to know that your warranty does not cover self inflicted damage such as thisĬreate a masking: In some cases, a masking may be constructed for fixed-frame screens. Projector screens are specially designed to enhance picture quality and are susceptible to damage when covered by an adhesive such as tape or glue. You cannot physically tape any masking to your screen.This is how the projector will format it. In other words, both images must be of equal width. The 2.35:1 aspect ratio must footprint within the confines of the 16:9 aspect ratio.These include applying your own masking, purchasing a multi-aspect ratio screen or alternating two screen materials that can accommodate the different aspect ratios.Īs always, there are rules of physics with which you must abide. There are various solutions for AV enthusiasts to effectively mask their projected image on their 16:9 projection screens when running their projectors in 2.35:1 mode. On the other hand, HDTV is a very common format and all you have to deal with it the letterbox effect when watching films. Some people buy a cinemascope formatted projection screen and it looks great if all you are planning to watch are movies of that format. The question of which format you’ll see more of is entirely up to you. In the case of home theater screens, if there is any other option, it will be a cinemascope format. Today, virtually every HDTV projector currently being made has the ability to switch aspect ratios to something different from its native format. Fortunately, AV manufacturers have been trying for years to bring custom solutions to viewers so there are a few choices to consider. Many viewers find the “black bars” above and below the visible image to be distracting. Love it or hate it, whenever you watch the “letterbox” edition, you are almost certainly watching a “widescreen” or Cinemascope presentation matted onto an HDTV screen. However, the wider aspect ratio (Cinemascope) fits the wide formats of most movies. The HDTV aspect ratio is pretty much standard for all of the television sets made today. Cinemascope is even wider with 2.35 units of width for every 1 unit of height. For example, with 16:9, there will be 16 units of width for every 9 equal units of height. The numbers indicate the ratio of width to height measurement. If not, an aspect ratio is essentially the shape of your television or projection screen.
