making the picture smaller

[chris_newton]

Hello all

After downloading a film when i watch it on my computer it looks great but when i change it to mpeg using tmpegc it obviously changes the resoloution but when i then watch it on tv the picture is good but its a little stretched out if you know what i mean!

Is there anyway of converting it so that the picture has a black border when you watch it on tv so the picture is not as stretched out.

Any help will be appreciated

Chris

It must be to do with your settings in TMPEnc, try setting the advanced / expert settings to "Full screen (keep aspect ratio)"

Make sure you have set the "source" aspect ratio to that of your movie.

I'm sure someone else here can better explain it.
