Since you have a 4K projector...with subtitles, make sure your PCF uses a 2K PCF when running 2K Subtitled movies. Subtitles reference the bottom of the image (and left edge) for placement. When you run a 2K movie on a 4K machine, the ICP will scale the image to have it fill the raster. So if you run a 4K PCF, it will place the subtitles at the bottom of a 4K image and then the scaler puts the bottom line below the screen.
If you use a 2K PCF (DCDM_XYZ_185 or 239 as appropriate) instead of the 4K version by the same name, your problem will vanish. You will need separate 2K and 4K projector presets. Again, this only affects movies that have subtitles and use CineCanvas to subtitle generation.
There is no problem running 2K movies with a 4K PCF (it will scale them out right), however, on a 4K projector, you cannot do the reverse (run 4K movies on a 2K PCF) but with subtitled movies, you have to match the PCF to the content.
