Hi guys I'm trying out CloneDVD and am having an odd problem.
I go through the regular motions of a 'movie only' copy, in the last screen it says it's 16:9 ratio.
Which it is
After transcoding/dumping, I check the resulting HDD vobs by loading up the IFO in MediaPlayerClassic and it plays back as it should in 16:9 ratio.
Great

After burning, it plays from the DVD at 4:3 ratio.
Not so great

I checked the DVD Player settings and it is set to play at 16:9 ratio.

Please help me eliminate these streched movies.

are you using the CloneDVD from Slysoft? or are you using the fake one?
never heard something like this before and never had any troubles myself using SlySoft's CloneDVD & AnyDVD together.

The real CloneDVD2 from Slysoft.

I think I solved my issue.
Apparently if I set my DVD Player as 4:3 aspect ratio it displays the 16:9 with black bars. When it's set at 16:9 it displays at 4:3 (like an automatic zoom)

Thank you for your prompt reply

just for my own interest:
could you insert the original dvd and see if it's also stretched when your standalone player is set up to 16:9 ?

this might be irritating in the dvd player's setup, but i think the aspect ration setting there is just to enter what kind of TV you have, so if you have a 4:3, you have to set this also in the settings...

I did, that's where I realised my mistake.

The original played at a 4:3 aspect as well, until I set the Player to play as 4:3.
Strange tho.. it's a widescreen TV *shrugs*

i cant figure out whom you are confusing more...yourself or others

This post made me laugh.
