TRAVELMAN Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Hi-this may be a dumb question but can you change widescreen films to full screen in a dvd copy??? My TV remote has been lost AGES ago & I can't get any other remote to work with it. Is it simple to do (as I'm a newbie) or only for the 'technoheads' (???!). Thanks!

kevdriver Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 (edited) Travelman, I do know what your asking can be done. I've never done it myself so can't be much help on telling you what program you could use. I do know that it takes many hours to convert widescreen format to fullscreen format. Might be easier just to obtain a fullscreen format of the original movie your after, if one exsists. .

lfcrule1972 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Mmm I can't swear to this, but I seem to think that DivXtoDVD might do this for you. Like I said it would be worth reading up on the program but a while ago I used it (and another prog) to test something and I think I saw a widescreen 16:9 or full screen 4:3 selector in there..... http://www.videohelp.com/tools?tool=vso_DivXtoDVD It may have been another prog tho......

Shamus_McFartfinger Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 You're right again, LFC. VSO DivxtoDVD does have this function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
