If you are using the project wizard, on the screen with options for source range, clip frame etc. choose Other Settings, then the advanced tab, then change Video Arrange Method to Full Screen (keep aspect ratio). That should do it I think.

your doing it wrong then, keep aspic ratio is ment to do just that, the same as if you play it as avi, but it converts it to mpg.

you have to change tmpgemc to full screen keep aspic ratio, you should be able to see it fine in the preview of tmpgenc

The problem is you are encoding it at a resolution too big for the tv you are using. Find out what the resolution of the tv you're using is and then when you encode it make sure that it is encoded into the correct res. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but most normal tvs res is like 360 x 240 and when you make it full screen on you pc then the res is anywhere from twice as big to four or five times. Hope this helps I had the same prob. ;)

You could also tri this.Double click clip frame,goto arange method and choose centre custom.Move the seek bar alittle bit so u can see and use the up/down left/right functions to arange the picture as u like. :D
You could also check on the video tab the aspect ratio is 4.3
The third time i've rembr'd somthing for here..memorys sliping a bit/.
U dont need clip frame ticked as long as its set in the video arange method box.

This one usualy works for me, but only if the original is in widescreen format. At the source file screen i change the aspect ratio to "16:9 display". On the filter setting screen choose "othe settings" check under the second tab (advanced setting) and try setting the "Video Arrangwe Method" to "keep aspect ratio 2". I find that this works for me in most but not all cases.
Good Luck
