Liesegang had a 4x5" projector, and Noble still does (Noblux).
At one time they also mentioned working on a (motorized?) rollfilm 
strip loader (as per a Linhof catalog), but I don't think it ever saw 
the light of dawn.
There are a few other solutions for this format, but those are 
insanely expensive, category 'motion-picture gadgets' (including 
motorized rotation of the entire projector).
