Is it possible to change on some DVD moovie, existing screen vector from Letterbox to pan-scan with just some simple editing (in .ifo files for example), or I need to transcode video files themselves?

The only way to change the aspect ratio would be to re-encode the video files in a "cropped" format.
If you just change the DAR (aspect ratio flag) in the IFO files you would end up stretching your display severely out of whack.
However, if you check your DVD player's menues, you may find that your player can handle the conversion process internally (like most software DVD players can).

Unfortunately, it does not.

Without re-encoding files, only with IFOEdit, I've done this! In IFOEdit I just changed static video attributes from letterboxed to automatic pan scan and letterboxed. And it works now at standalone DVD player, but!
I kept to subtitles streams, which I need. But when I see movie in pan scan mode, I can see only english subtitles, even if I choose another one. But when I choose letterboxed mode, I can see another subtitles, and they are lower than english subtitles. How can I correct the problem?

In IFOEdit I can see SubPicture 1
and SubPicture 2, which are subtitles in english and in russian.
Attributes are the same, excect the fact, that for english subtitles I see (ID: 0x20)
and for russian -- (ID 0x21,0x20)
The result is as I mentioned before.

Hello!

Have you found the solution for subtitles not showing in automatic pan and scan mode, after editing in IFOEdit??

I have the same problem... I set up the automatic pan scan and automatic letterbox format in IFOEdit, but in pan and scan I can see only english subs.

Yes! I found the solution. This is on another forum, I don't remember the URL already, but I copied the text, and send it below:

----

The problem is solved if we set to "1" the flag in the right position.
The positions are 4: 4/3, wide, letterbox, pan&scan.

Normally only the middle 2 parameters are set to 1: wide and letterbox.
If we remux a M2V originally in 16:9 with a M2V in 4:3, we can't see any subtitle, eccept
for the first one (0x20)

Well, now I set to "1" ALL the 4 parameters, but there is still another problem:
how I can be able to obtain the right decimal value?

It's more simple than it appear.

Look at PGCITI, in the row "subpicture stream status".
There is a GREAT negative decimal value.
At extreme right there is the analogue value, in hexadecimal format.

Look a it:
if is on stream 1 (0x20) the value is 80000000. Better view in 80.00.00.00
if is on stream 2 (0x21) the value is 80010101. Better view in 80.01.01.01
if is on stream 3 (0x22) the value is 80020202. Better view in 80.02.02.02

Do you see the redundance?

Yeah!
If we wants to be able to see the subpicture with a movie in 4:3 we must set the first
parameter like other 3.
I'll be more sharp: we must set a value ugual as the stream number.
If the value is ugual as the stream number, we can be able to see this subtitle.
If the value is zero, we cannot see anything.

Yeah, the first stream (0x20) is particular, because even if is set ALL to ZERO, we can
still be able to seen the subtitles in each mode, because the stream is number ZERO!

example:
I wanna to set subpicture stream 2 (0x21) to allow the vision on 4:3 format.
I must change the exadecimal value in 81.00.00.00 (stream 1, value 0, stream 2, value 1... stream 3 value 2... etc)

In this case, I purpose the modify of all parameters ON
The 81.00.00.00 will be 81.01.01.01

What is the analogue decimal value for 81010101?
Open your f***ing calc.exe, switch to scientific mode, and calcutate it!

I've calculate ALL parameter for first 12 subpicture (I think that is enough!)

Just substitute at the original.
Here is:

stream code 4:3 WD LB PS Hex

1 0x20 -2147483648 0 0 0 0 80000000
2 0x21 -2130640639 1 1 1 1 81010101
3 0x22 -2113797630 2 2 2 2 82020202
4 0x23 -2096954621 3 3 3 3 83030303
5 0x24 -2080111612 4 4 4 4 84040404
6 0x25 -2063268603 5 5 5 5 85050505
7 0x26 -2046425594 6 6 6 6 86060606
8 0x27 -2029582585 7 7 7 7 87070707
9 0x28 -2012739576 8 8 8 8 88080808
10 0x29 -1995896567 9 9 9 9 89090909
11 0x2a -1979053558 10 10 10 10 8a0a0a0a
12 0x2b -1962210549 11 11 11 11 8b0b0b0b

Now, is all perfectly functionally.
