Does anybody know how to change the settings when it comes to ripping DVD's into VCD's in order to get the Widescreen version burned instead of the Fullscreen ????...
I use smarripper 2.41, DVD2avi, TMPGEnc and DVDtool
Many thanks !!!

are you talking talking about wanting to rip the widescreen version of a movie from a dvd that has both version on it? if thats the case you just gotta mess around with smartripper and find the other version. just start clicking thru all the trees. the other person post will help you if you are trying to encode a widescreen format movie into a 4:3 ratio and everyone looks 7 feet tall and really skinny

Yes GotNissan, that's exactly what I meant. Could you please be more specific about it, 'cause I don't seem to find it in SmartRipper ????

ok here is what you would do. once smartripper has unlocked the dvd, it will select the files that it believes are the ones that you are going to want, i don't have any dvds like the one your trying to rip so i'll have to improvise. all the searching that you will have to do is in the "Title Program -> Chain ->Angle" box. if smartripper has unlocked the dvd and found the movie. you will see it highlighted with blue. inside of what is highlighted is a length of time which represents the movie ex. [01:29:32]. so now all you gotta do is search around all the other trees to basically find another angle that has that same length of time. so start opening up all the Titles that have +'s to the left of them, then open up the program chain(s) that becomes visible then check out all the angles that will pop up and next to these new angles will be times such as [01:29:32], most of the angles you will find are only a few minutes long and all they are is the extra features that come on the dvd such as the trailers, deleted scenes etc. you could rip those to if you wanted to. but keep searching till you find an angle that has the same time as the original angle that is found when you start the program, and that should be the widescreen version. i'm sorry if this doesn't make sense i have been up all night. so all you gotta do once you find the widescreen version is click it once so it is highlighted. then look to the bottom right of the program and in the required diskspace box it should have a couple gigabytes. then click start, and your good to go. well if you gotta any questions lemme know.

what do you do in case of a movie like "Ocean's Eleven" where the only copy of the movie on the disk is the wide angle and there is no 4:3. How do I get the wide angle look maintained in my copy as everthing looks like vertically stretched?

what encoder are you using? if it is tmpge then, you have to click setting, then click advanced, then in the "source aspect ratio box" pick "16x9 Display" and you'll be all set, that is the box that you have to make sure is set correctly to ensure that your movies are encoded at the proper ratio

I'm going through the path of:
- Smart Ripper (streams)
- Reencode to lower bitrate through ReMpreg2
(if it doesn't fit on 1 DVD-R)
- SpruceUp to Author.
As far as I can see non of the above tools have a 16x9 display button. Is tmpge the only solution for this or can this be fixed within the tools I'm using? Thanks.

When I use Source Aspect Ratio = 16:9 in TMPGEnc the result will look very fine on a PC but my standalone DVD-Player will play rubbish. The sound is no good anymore (noiseeffects) and the video is jumping.
Is this a problem with the player?
If I use 4:3 there is no problem except the stretched image (then I have to set the aspect ratio of my tv to 16:9). What I want is a playable 16:9 VCD-Version.
Any ideas??? Please !?!

the poor performance of the vcd with the standalone dvd player, could be the fault of the dvd player. I usually watch my vcds with my toshiba 5 disc. I have some of my vcds at my girlfriends house to watch on their 1 disc RCA, they play crappy on that dvd player. the audio is not as good and the video will slow down and speed up, yet the audio stays the same, so the movie will temporarily fall out of sync. Different brands of cd-rs make a difference. a memorex cd-r will play a lot better in it than a PNY or Imation cd-r, my guess would be that it has to do with the laser being able to read the data. So you have to experiment to see if you can find the best brand cd-r for your dvd player, but research equals extra spent money so good luck

Thanks for your answer.
This explanation also explains another problem of mine: some MP3-CDs are not playing correctly on this DVD (Aiwa), but show no failure on PC. As is the same for the 16:9-VCDs.
So I have to encode those VCDs as 4:3, watch over the PCs TV-Out or take other CD-Rs (I have no problems if someone else does 16:9-VCDs on other mediums).
Not really happy, but I know what to do ;-)
Thanks and kind regards
