Not surprising. The DVD standard requires that MPEG2 video have dimensions of 720x480 for NTSC and 720x576 for PAL. The standard requires that these files always be played back at 4:3 aspect ratio, rather than their native. AVIDemux doesn't know that. -- Carl Fink [EMAIL PROTECTED] Read my blog at nitpickingblog.blogspot.com. Reviews! Observations!
