I accidentily put the video source at 4:3 instead 16:9.

I was pretty careless when adjusting the settings in TMPGEnc and now the picture looks vertically stretched. Is there a program that I can use to edit my outputted file and fix the picture or do I need to encode again?

If your output file is Mpeg2, then im pretty sure theres something you could change in the header that will tell any decoder that its 16:9. I could be wrong, (i usually am) Guys?

Or...

If you are planning to make a DVD you could use Vobedit, after you have authored the movie, to change the aspect ratio flag to 16:9. (I have no clue how do this BTW)

Cheers! That did work but I have a question about the settings.

I originally encoded it as "NTSC Film" (23.97 fps) with "3:2 Pulldown During Playback" (adds flags to play as 29.97 fps) in TMPGEnc. With DVDPatcher, do choose the framerate as NTSC Film or NTSC?

I would guess NTSC film (because 29.97 IS NTSC and you use 23.97, but I'm not that current in NTSC specifics, so I'd recommend to give it a try with a rewritable disk.
