my daughter jus bought a new ipad, and I am trying to help her, she tried to put some on her old movies that were on her ipod and archos machine onto her ipad. The problem is they are coming up letterbox and not full screen. She also bought a movie on Itunes and it was not full screen. Is there a program I can tell her about that will convert the movie to full screen, doesn't have to be blue ray as that is too much size for her ipad

The video that was purchased through iTunes will most likely be DRM-protected, and basically almost impossible to convert. You'd be better off ripping a DVD of the movie/video in question and converting that, instead.
What are the resolutions of the other videos that are being letterboxed? Note that if you DO want those to be full-screen, you're either going to have to stretch the image (people look taller and thinner, circles turn to weird ovals, etc.), or crop the sides of the image (you lose parts of the video on one or both sides).If cameras add ten pounds, why would people want to eat them? -

Send your daughter here:

Have her read this. Explain to her that you're NOT going to do this because it's not only a ton of work for you and it will cost you a lot of time and possibly MORE money (see below on that) but you're not going to help her ruin the movie by losing huge parts of the picture. Get on with your life.
Or tell your daughter to do the work herself if she wants it done, but as Ai Haibara points out, iTunes videos WILL be DRM protected and your ONLY option will be to buy a screen capture program, play the video in real time, record it, and then re-encode that doing some cropping to full screen. I'd opt for the "Just live with it" option here.
