hi
For some time been wondering how to fix this problem, perhaps you can help. Using dvb card Nexus to catch ppv movies from di*h sattelite to my computer hd directly. The idea is to to make dvd's later for my collection. Found way to do it practically without problems.But... the captured movies are in 544x480 frame size. I can still make dvd's with that using my developed process and all these dvd's will playback on my standalone dvd player and therfore I'm sort of lucky. But those dvd's wont play on other dvd players, which afterall makes me look stupid. It's been quite some time since I started to search for solution, with not much luck. TempegEnc did encoded my files to dvd standart of 720x480 but I'm getting black margin lines on left and right side of my screen. it looks like widescreen but in vertical. I know about dvdPatcher but that is not a solution it gives problems too. Been wondering if something you could suggest to get dvd standart frame size. Perhaps, Tempeg settings are not right (but I look in to that) and can't find anything that I missed. Maybe totally diffrent type of software is out there which may work. In some of my tryouts I ran in to big sync problems and stopped using them ei:virtualmod, avisync etc. I had to ask sombody for opinion in this matter, hoppfuly you can thing of something. Sorry for the length of this message, just like to explain problem little better that's all.
