Video Resolution?

[tmgrood]

Im trying to convert an mov to dvd but its got a video resolution of 865x368, 16:9.
Im trying to find out what would be a good video resolution conversion from those numbers.
I usualy convert from avi but this one is different from the norm.
Thanks.

720x272 would be the nearest conversion.

I will give it a try.
I know theres a way to figure out the conversion but couldnt find it in the "guides" section.
thanks again.

I haven't found out how to conver it either I have .mov files that are in 524x360 resolution and want to lower it but don't know the optimal resolution. Anyone know?

Shouldn't the final res be 368 vertical encoded at 16:9 for NTSC or 432 vertical (from 435) for PAL?

272 is for a 4:3 encoding for NTSC.

As for the guides they are there <<<<<< you aint looking hard enough.

What are you going to use to encode it to mpg? I use TMPGEnc and when I go to encode a 2.35:1 movie, which is what you have - I set the flag to 16:9 and custom clip the resolution to 720x360....turns out fine
