Yes, you can do this in VirtualDub. Resize your file to something like 576x240, 640x240, or 720x240 and see if that helps.


Hope That Helps!!! :P

oK thanxs 4 the tip,

but when i open this new resized avi file in vdub, it does not give me the bottom n the upper black fields in the image, n that´s what I need. U see, when I open a avi 4:3 file it gives me that upper n bottom black field, actually I would like to increase this black fields withou havin to cut any parts of my image. I´ve done that loading the original file in tmpgenc n askin to make a 16:9 mpeg2. the problem is that I wanna my final file in avi n it takes a long time each conversio to mpeg2 n back to avi.

thanxs

VirtualDub won't show you the black bars since you just made it widescreen. But, once you encode the file with TMPGEnc, you should be able to see those black bars that you want.


Hope That Helps!!! :P

Adding black bars is known as letterboxing. You can resize and/or crop the movie in virtualdub, but you will have to letterbox it too.

Thanxs my friend,

to crop i know how to do it, but it cuts a part of the image. Is there any way i could "squeeze" the movie without losin any part of the image, if so, how??
N what is this letterboxing that u said i´ll have to do it too???
