Well to begin with, I'm fairly new to this and have been using the invaluable guides and these forums for a few months now since I got my first burner, a Pioneer A04. I'm having a wierd problem where the end result is my movies are somewhat compressed horizontally, meaning everything in the picture is kinda thinner and taller than they normally are. It looks wierd and not at all like the original pictures.
I'm using DVD Decrypter 3 to rip my movies to the drive, then IFO edit to parse out the main movie and the dolby 5.1 sound track. If I need to compress it, I normally use ReMPEG2 v1.5.2 to shrink it down a bit into a .mv2 file and DVD2AVI to make my .ac3 file. I use SpruceUp to author up some quick menus and import my .MV2 and .AC3 files and burn them with InstantCD as a UDF DVD Video. Everything works out great and plays fine on my set-top player.
I'm thinking that its SpruceUp screwing up the 16:9 aspect, but I'm not sure how to fix it.
