very wide screen to normal 16:9

[svdf]

i don't know what the format is called, but it's longer than 16:9. now i want to convert it to vcd, and display it on a 16:9 tv, so how do i convert the format that it fits??? :confused: i think in virtual dub, but how?

Just feed this AVISynth script to the VCD encoder:clip=AVISource("d:\test.avi")
clip1=clip.ConvertToYUY2.BicubicResize(352,round((240*16*clip.height)/(9*clip.width)),0,0.5)
clip2=clip1.addborders(0,16*round((240-clip1.height)/32),0,0)
return clip2.addborders(0,0,0,(240-clip2.height))

This script is created for NTSC. For PAL use 288 instead of 240.
For correct VCD aspect ratio change 16 and 9 on line clip1=... to 4 and 3
