So thats really the pisser of all of it. The blu-ray box says the movie is 2.35:1, but MediaInfo and anything looking at the video file sees 16:9, which makes the whole exercise sorta moot.
Managing the screen mask is the easier part of my equation. Changing my projector's lens memory location, so it shoots the image on the bottom of the screen so I only have to mask the top, is the harder part. It requires a separate activity for the Harmony remote in order to trigger the projector. "Widescreen Movie" is a separate "activity" from "Full Screen Movie." I may have to suffer like a neanderthal and press the "Lens 2" button manually.
Thanks for the great info above. "Hey Google, Cinemascope" will have to suffice for the screen mask.
