I have a mpeg4 player in a boat with 2 lcd screens one lcd is 4:3 and the othe 16:9.
any xvid i play has the right aspect ratio on the 4:3 ( with bars top and bottom)but is squashed horizontally on the wide screen lcd with the same black bars making people fat

Changing the tv type on the player has no effect running mpeg4. But does work with Mpeg2.s

It seems as though with Mpeg4's it assumes that it is always a 4:3 display!

Any advice as i would like to watch avi's on the wide screen in the right aspect ratio

Regards

Steve
