I'm interested in this Canon ZR 500 which can record true 16:9 format (not HD though). I just want to know if I can transfer the video to my DVD recorder and played with the correct wide format. Because everytime I record 16:9 format TV programs from the cable box to PC, the picture is squeezed to 4:3. I correct that using TmpgencPlus to re-stretch. Thanks.

I have an older Canon ZR-series camcorder and my Pioneer DVD reecorder automatically recognizes the 16:9 format when importing via either the DV link or S-video from the camcorder.

The camcorder should flag as 16:9 if you shoot in that mode. If you maintain 16:9 to the DVD, it will play 16:9 out the DVD player with an option for 4:3 letterbox.
