I have converted a dvd which is in widescreen format into mp4 first using dvd decrypter in ifo mode and then converted the vob using pspvideo9 using a res of 368x208. It looks ok on my psp, but just wanted to know if there is a way anyone knows of on how to remove the black horizntal lines above and below the movie so that the movie takes up the whole screen......if that makes sense

Instead of using 368x208 use 320X240 and youll be able to change the view mode on psp between Fullscreen - Zoom - Original thats the easiest way. Another way is cropping, there are many progs which do this, but i suggest VirtualDub.
use VirtualDub to rip dvd to VOB, when in virtual dub find the option to crop and remove the bars, then video 9 it.

Nice one, I'll try virtual dub. I have tried chainging the view mode but the bars are still present, even when I am wacthing the dvd on a widescreen TV.

Will let you know how I get on

Also, what are the benifits from doing a 2pass over a single pass encode, as 2pass takes twice as long so must have some benefit.

Or try these settings with PSPvideo9 taken from my guide at Ravenlife. (Link in my sig)

You will find these ASPECT RATIO,s on the back cover of the DVD.

For 2:35.1 with an ASPECT RATIO of 4:3 (yes sometimes there is) use these options:

VIDEO
MODE: AVC>CBR
VIDEO BITRATE: 384kbps
RESOLUTION: 416x176
FRAMERATE: 29.97fps
ASPECT RATIO: 1:1

CROP INPUT: Make sure the box is checked.
TOP 170
BOTTOM 170

AUDIO
BITRATE: 160kbps (is actually 128kbps, bug in the program maybe)
CHANNEL: STEREO
SAMPLE RATE:48000Hz
VOLUME: 500%

PRESS APPLY.

For 2:35.1 with an ASPECT RATIO of (16.9) USE ABOVE SPECS with these CROP INPUTS:

LETTERBOX = 70 TOP and BOTTOM
ANAMORPHIC = 74 TOP and 66 BOTTOM
WIDESCREEN = 70 TOP and 68 BOTTOM

They are very similar i know.

For 1:85.1 with an ASPECT RATIO of 16.9 use these options:

VIDEO
MODE: AVC>CBR
BITRATE:384kbps
RESOLUTION: 368x208
FRAMERATE: 29.97fps
ASPECT RATIO: 1:1

CROP INPUT: Make sure the box is checked.
TOP 70
BOTTOM 70
FOR WIDESCREEN:
TOP 12
BOTTOM 10

AUDIO is the same as above.

If you follow these settings correctly, your black bars will vanish
And u will have full screen size at the right resolution
