How can it, it doesn't cut any information from the sides?. If it's a widescreen source, it'll keep it as widescreen when converting to mpg. Or have I got the wrong end of the stick?

yea its counter intuitive but to check full screen keep aspic ratio will preserve the wide screen from the original avi, now if its not already wide screen you need to choose wide screen

Full Screen keep aspect ration will make it fullscreen with about probably 4:3 or 16:9 ratio so it won't stretch it out compress it while making full screen.

I got a question,
If my .avi is 720*256 for example when i make it full screen it just stretches it too much! How do i change the pixels to be bigger than what they were but not too big to look over stretched on my pal tv? and what over settings do i need to change?

Cheers!

if its wide screen already, and you choose full screen keep aspic ratio it will preserve the wide screen formate, at least in ntsc, I'm pretty sure I read you convert to pal so that might be why you get different results than us

Just encode the movie the way it is u should do a 4:3 625 line (PAL 704x576) since your dvd player is Pal

My dvd is multi region!

is your tv muti system, I'd bet not, so you need to make it pal if its pal or ntsc if its ntsc

720x256 means its a widescreen source. If you want to keep the widescreen (ie with black borders above and below on a normal TV screen) choose Full Screen (Keep Aspect Ratio) in Arrange Method. If you want to make the movie so it fills the screen with no borders (bear in mind you'll be losing information from the sides of the picture), choose No Margin (Keep Aspect Ratio). That'll cut the picture for you.

Most modern TVs can play PAL or NTSC (at least in the UK they can) so you shouldn't need to worry about that.
