Thanks looter!!

Well if you have never used the pan & scan option there is a high chance you won't need to. It is for the following issues: 'double image playback', '2/3 + 1/3 image playback', 'off center display' or 'stretched image'. It typically effects pioneer Dvd players when SVCDs are used to produce DVD-SVCDs. If you don't have these issues then don't use the Pan & Scan option as it dramatically increases processing time.

i do have a pioneer and it never played these conversions ok.....i just stopped using it...i figured it was the svcd 480x480 AR as opposed to 720x480 dvd AR....itll be nice to be able to watch everything in every room if it works..thanx
