    Hi,

    I've just shot a movie in 16:9 ratio. Now I want to put it on a DVD.
    My question is: If I play it on a non widescreen DVD standalone player, will it play it in anamorphic or letterbox ratio?

    Thanks

    If you make a 16x9 WS anamorphic DVD Video then it will play back just like a store bought 16x9 WS anamorphic DVD Video.

    In other words it will be 4:3 Letterboxed on a 4:3 TV but it will be "enhanced" if played back on a 16x9 WS TV. Either way the aspect ratio will remain the same.
