As he mentioned ConvertXtoDVD in his post, it sounds like he's referring to converting video files to DVD format.

But why pay for that piece of software (currently $50)? - there is freeware available such as Freemake, AVStoDVD and DVD Flick.

I'm trying Freemake and was needing to know if there is a setting that would convert to a DVD that would burn the picture that covers the entire screen or if it will only burn where there is a horizontal black area on the top and bottom ?

Freemake, AVStoDVD and DVD Flick.... which do you guys prefer ?

I've used ConvertXtoDVD, AVStoDVD and MultiAVCHD for converting one source (MKV, TS or AVI) to DVD. If you don't already own ConvertXtoDVD then try AVStoDVD. AVStoDVD is a bit slower, doesn't have as many menus and they're not as "fancy," but it's free and works very well.

I like DVDFlick. It's pretty simple.
