[QUOTE="dman_lfc, post: 1790, member: 10331"] Here is my new math on the subject since i got DVD of 720 & 768 of SVCD mixed up... SVCD PAL is encoded at a 480x576 resolution. All decent DVD software players know that the MPEG header should display the video at a 768x576 resolution. i.e. Stretching it horizontally by 1.6 which is how it should be displayed in any format / resolutuion. Now with my resolution (832x468) the 'normal' aspect ratio mode in MP would therefore (I assume) scale this to 624x468 leaving a black border left and right. Then if I changed the aspect ration to 'stretched' I would get a result of 832x468. Leaving no black border however a squashed aspect ratio. But if I then changed to 'zoom' I should get 832x624. MP should then crop 78 pixels top and bottom from the video hopefully displaying the video as it should look on a widescreen TV. Alternatively position it as 0,-78 in this mode. And also since I got my math wrong... WinDVD 6 compensates for this by stretching content by 1.3333333333333. DMAN [/QUOTE]
