Letterboxing-Boy Do I Feel Stupid

[wulf109]

I've been trying to figure out how to encode in Tmpeg and preserve the letterboxing and proper aspect ratio. It took me long enough. I was reading a post on another subject and the writer said that there are only two legal formats in DVD,full screen and 16:9. The answer in settings,leave the video tab with 4:3 selected. In the advanced tab change the Source Aspect Ratio to 16:9 and the video arrange method to Full Screen(Keep Aspect Ratio). It works every time,235:1 or 1.85:1. Like I said boy do I feel stupid.

Nar, your not stupid......

You can't expect to know everything there is about video encodeing right away.

Seek and ye shall find.
Ask and it shall be given unto you.
