Alright hi everybody I am not sure if this is the right topic to put this under but I am having problems with convertxtodvd. I know this has been discussed before but when I play a movie I convert with this program on my tv it makes the picture bigger than it should be and it makes it seem some of the picture is cropped. I have a widescreen lcd tv and the file i encode is widescreen. I set the program to convert to 16:9 aspect ratio, and this doesnt work. The reason I am asking this is because whenever I encode using nero vision I do not have this problem. Anybody know why? How can I fix this?
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

It's probably because of overscan. Try the latest convertxtoDVD RC3 and you should be able to set black borders, http://www.vso-software.fr/download_product_direct.php?product=convertxtodvd3

I take it that was a fix in the new version? I do see the black bars to the right and left when I preview it while its encoding. I will burn one tonight and see if that did it. I just never had a prob with it before, I think nero automatically adjusted it.
Thanks -
?? what is that supposed to mean. If I can get convertxtodvd to encode my movies right, I will get rid of it. There was one other thing I noticed with convertxtodvd. If the movie file isnt that big it wont use the whole dvd-R it says the video has reached its normal limit for dvd's but after burning there is still have the dvd not burned. Is there a reason, I dont think I noticed that before either?

thats a bit rate / file size thing,
auto sampling, sets the bitrate, and the final size is smaller, than if you set manualy for max size or quality -
I did maually set it on convertxtodvd. On the encoding tab I set the target size to 4475 MB which would pretty much be the whole disc. I looked at the log it makes and it give me this message "Video bitrate has been set to maximum possible value for DVD specifications. Target size may not be reached." I look at the folder created after the movie is encoded and the total size of the movie is 3.43gb?

I see if I am reading that right a single layer dvd can go up to Video:
Up to 9.8 Mbps* (9800 kbps*) MPEG2 video. I used a bitrate calculator and since the movie is 1 hour 36 mins and the audio is 112kbit/s. The calculater says "calculated bitrate 6239 kbit/s Dvd Max Bitrate 9685kbit/s, so it should all fill the dvd.

alright last question I think. I tried burning a movie with convertxtodvd and it still had a problem with overscanning. Overscanning is different on every tv right? If I would to play it on a regular tube tv it might show all of the picture right? Was there a fix on that FitCD program and convertxtodvd. I saw there was a problem before on a different thread. Do you know how long does that usually take for one movie?
