i havent really looked into the thread much, but I suspect the original poster of that project may have either had a adapter board (like a GBS8000) and has forced a certain resolution to the projector... but looks more like he is using a computer instead of the original game hardware and could simply force a resolution anyway.
since i figure by the sounds of things, you might be using original hardware... you havent mentioned... but i think about the only thing i could suggest is to see if you could find a setting in the projector to force a 4:3 image and then adjust the zoom and whatnot to fill the area... or find some kind of upscaler board to convert your signal (like the GBS8000)

Okay, I can try some boards. Yeah, sorry about that, I am using original hardware.

Okay. Will be here doing the same thing. I think I'm going to mess around with them a bit today to see what I can find out with what I already have here at my shop.

Here is what my issues are:
As you can tell I cannot zoom the image in any more than it already is. Just like on the other forum, I have the same projector as them and have it hooked up the same way and mounted the same way. I am missing something here to make it fill the whole screen like they have and I don't know what it is. This is driving me insane :banghead:

Okay, so I took a break and came back to it and realized that it is a modification lens kit you can get for the projector. Downside is that it is coming from china :( and will take forever to get here. Here is the link to the ebay auction https://www.ebay.com/itm/164440723663 I will have some on order here soon and see if I can get shorter shipping times on this to get to Vegas. Will let y'all know
