Becuase the topic is closed I'm posting this here in hope of some help!

After reading this topic on ITU-R BT.601 would it be right to assume the following:

If I’m encoding an ITU compliant DVD source to be watched on a (1:1) screen like a monitor I should have the ITU-R BT.601 ticked under options on GKnot to have the correct Aspect Ratio.

But if plan to watch the new encoding on a TV using an ITU compliant player I shouldn’t use the ITU-R BT.601 option in GKnot, but do a normal 16:9 or 4:3 and allow the Player to do the ITU correction.

Would this be correct???

Cheers!

Hi-

To quote TheWEF:
leave it checked, leave it checked, leave it checked,...
But if you read through that thread, you'll notice some differences of opinion. Mine's always checked, and I watch on both TV and the monitor.
