Bought this player Sharp BD-HP20U Blu-Ray and connected it directly to the CP2000zx and CP500. The picture and audio quality looks/sounds really good. The picture is however, only 1080i. The only problem I have is that I can not get the picture to stretch vertically to get a descent proportion. Is there a way to adjust the picture size through the channel settings on the projector or do I need to get a scaler?

If you set your BluRay player to 24p...THEN, if you set your projector to "Cinema Processing" you can scale the image in the projector. The projector will not scale anything over a 48Hz frequency and then only on Cinema Processing.

Otherwise, yes, an external scaler...and one that is HDCP compliant (e.g. ACS 2048) will be needed to resize the image.

Is this done via the control panel or laptop with Christie set up software?

You have to have permissions to get to the Advance and Administration levels on a Christie to work with these controls.
