Regular DVD's fill the screen but my blu-ray dvd's do not. - Blu-ray Forum

Hello,
I am wondering why my regular dvd's fill the entire 16:9 1080p samsung lcd tv screen when my blu-rays have black lines on the top and bottom of the screen. Is there anyway to fix this? I want to get full use out of the TV, and not waste space with those 2 annoying black lines.
