Hi there i followed a guide from nickys digital digest pages and he explains everything really well Apart from one thing (Size Of The Picture) it just says use Virtual DUB to resize your movie before encoding, but does not tell you what size is best (i AM Newbie) so i guessed and after a 2 pass encode the movie is not very good quality mainly down to it been nearly fullscreen (when its a widescreen movie)

What is the best size to encode a 16:9 widescreen movie into?

Any help would be appreciated

I am encoding to a 900MB DIVX file BTW
