I asked this about a week ago, seems there isn't an easy solution at the DVD end, but some TV's can do a more-or-less conversion. One little trick you could try that usually helps for me is to set your DVD output for "widescreen TV" if you have that option. This is counter-intuitive, but it actually makes those top/bottom black bands very much smaller with my gear. System dependent of course, doesn't work on all widescreen DVD's, better than with zoom on, don't lose as much at the sides.
