  1. I captured a video using Pinnacle's Studio DC10 Plus I then converted this video to MPEG and saved to a CD-RW as I was going to change the harddrive, my problem is that now I want to edit this video clip the picture has gone from a horizontal rectangle to a verticle rectangle with black lines down either side of the picture, any ideas on how to get this back as it was.
    Although I am computor literate this is not the case with video. After reading some letters on this forum I think it may be an aspect ratio problem , but of course I am only taking an uneducated guess .Any help would be appreciated .Thanks

    computer is square pixels - video tends to look more like a square than tv's which have non square pixels ..

    is this what you are seeing ?

  5. Is this a SVCD mpeg2. Try playing it back using a DVD software player such as PowerDVD or WinDVD.

  6. Thank Craig
    I tried playing the the mentioned file on power DVD but got the error message unsuported file but the file will play in media player but vertically elongated. when I right click on the file and go to properties the file is described as a "movie file (mpeg ). I have now also noticed that there ios no sound when this file is played.
