using zoom player to change aspect ratio

[snafubaby]

Does anyone know how to do the following with Zoom Player? I wanna take a video i made, and have it play right in the middle of the tv screen (after converting it to DVD and playing it in standalone DVD player), kinda like a letterbox type of video. I figure that if it's in the middle of the screen, the small size of the video, while still big enough to watch, will look a lot better. If i just convert it normally, the correct aspect ratio will be used and the video will stretch, and make things look worse.

Any help would be appreciated! thanks!

You just zoom out with zoom player. If you want want to convert to a dvd-video you add black borders around the image so it doesn't stretch out to 720x576/480 or just use a lower video resolution like 352x288/240 that is supported in a dvd-video. Use a good dvd/mpg converter where you can adjust that like tmpgenc xpress.
