Hi,

I am new in this, and finally could figure out how to capture the vedio cassette pictures to my camcorder then to Ulead Sytems capture software in MPEG-2, convert it to SVCD (NTSC) format in tmpgen, and finally cut the SVCD through vcdEasy, and I can play that in my DVD player. Everything is great, but there is a problem.

I just cannot get the right screen size. Tmpgen is squeezing the picture vertically. Looks like what I am getting out of Ulead is 16:9 format. I am not too sure. Now no matter what I do in tmpGen's settings, the overall screen size is always squeezed vertically.

I am talking about the real screen size, not the picture size within the screen, that I figured out how to play about. So, the bottom line is how can I make the screen size of the output MPEG-2 exactly same as the input MPEG-2? I repeat it is the screen size, and not the picture size within the screen. I tried every possible combination with my 2 second test clip, 1:1 VGA, 4:3, 16:9, "keep aspect ratio", "full screen" etc. etc. these only changes the picture size within the screen, but the screen size remain the same squeezed.

Thanks for any help. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I have just reached a point of no resolution at this stage. :roll: :roll: :roll:
