    I'm not online anymore. Ask BALDRICK, LORDSMURF or SATSTORM for help. PM's are ignored.

    Since you have gotten a answer I will jump in.

    The general answer is it will be full screen.
    Some of guides on the left do cover this. For example you can use movie factory to easily convert your VCD onto a DVD.

    You will not gain the quality of a DVD but will keep the VCD level.
    People do this to get more time on a DVD when quality is not number one OR they do not have the original higher res source. Sounds like you are in last group.

    It depends of the bitrate you use, not the framesize of the mpeg.

    Generall speaking, without filters, you need about 1500 average for 352 X 288/240, 3500 - 4000kb/s average for 352 X 576/480 and for 720 x 576/480 about 8000 average.

    With filters, those values goes really lower....
