Has anyone run across this....I have been trying to convert my 24 discs. I have done every episode in season 2, except episode 19. I noticed my other computer when i used Power DVD to watch the vob file, that it didnt seem to stay at 16:9 (when i maximized it, the video filled the screen.) This is different from all the others, that would black bar the top and bottom like normal. I didnt think much of it at the time. Now that the conversion is done on that episode, my final file is the same. I also noticed this line from the log:
[6/6/2005 3:25:04 PM] Source aspect ratio: 4:3
[6/6/2005 3:25:04 PM] Source resolution: 720x480
[6/6/2005 3:25:04 PM] Found NTSC source.

This is what all my other logs say from the other eps:
[6/6/2005 1:47:32 PM] Source aspect ratio: 16:9
[6/6/2005 1:47:32 PM] Source resolution: 720x480
[6/6/2005 1:47:32 PM] Found NTSC source.

As far as I can tell...nothing was changed during the decryption process. The second log is from the episode right before 19, and it says 16:9 on the one right after it. Im giving GK a try, but i was wondering if anyone has run into this issue? In the mean time Ill have to wait for that to finnish, and Ill give it another go with AGK.

You can force 16:9 encoding in the hidden options menu.
Does the video look all stretched up on the faulty episode?
