quote: Use ifoedit.. u can force title menu to be 16:9. Save the IFO and bup file to another place other than folder.. copy and paste them to replace the files in the folder ( as you know this means you had to extract the video_TS folder.. .. i used winrar to get VTS files)... anyhow once u do the above, simply burn movie and on most dvd players and on ur pc ull have 16:9 AR and itll look crisp.. very nice.. except for timers.....
did the above ... looks real nice on the 21" monitor .. even though it's MPEG1 .. very good considering .. sound isn't too bad, although it's only stereo. Bass rattles a little too much for my liking, but will DEFINATELY do until a 5.1 TC (hint, hint SAOSIN ) or even DVDR is posted .. *cough .. SAOSIN .. do it NTSC for this one -end-cough* lol
The biggest issue I had with this; some of the scenes were repeated (10-15 second parts) .. like the movie would be playing smooth, then suddenly it would repeat a small piece of it .. I thought I was losing it, I thought PowerDVD went nuts .. but it only did it 3 or 4 times throughout the entire duration of the movie ..
Overall rating:
Video: 6 / 10 - (loses marks for initial AR issue / MPEG1 blockiness / huge timers / random repeating; original video source was probably nice to look at.)
Audio 7 / 10 - (loses marks as it's not a digital source to start with, heavy bass-clipping during certain scenes; not that bad considering the source was most likely a video-tape)
Movie 9 / 10 - I was pleasently surprised .. that's all I will say about that
DVD-R 1 / 10 - (lost most marks because this didn't need to be a DVDR in my honest opinion).
Release 10 / 10 - getting it 4 hours before the premiere is NOTHING to cry about ..
Cheers all ..
