Has anyone ever noticed that certain software, when playing widescreen video, will stretch the picture out to fill the whole screen? I first noticed this with Sonic's MyDVD. I know this is a different type of software, but whenever I encoded a DVD from a widescreen .avi file the resulting file would playback stretched with the whole screen filled out. Now I'm noticing this on Intervideo's Home Theater software. Widescreen DVD's play fine, but whenever I play a widescreen .avi file, the aforementioned effect occurs. I imagine the program is using whatever version of WinDVD it came bundled with so this may also be a problem on WinDVD software packages. Has anyone else ever noticed this and if so would anyone know how to rectify it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
