-oops, I thought I was just logging in when I hit 'enter'

... So, ok, that's all great, but does anyone have tips for converting a laserdisc capture from 4:3 to anamorphic?

I've dubbed from LD to DVD before, and I realize there is no actual resolution/quality gain etc. when scaling up like that ... I just want to try it!

I capture with a Canopus ADVC 300 and use Final Cut Pro on a Mac, nothin fancy.

I get that I should scale it vertically by a factor of 1.333 (haven't see an obvious way to do that in FCP, though) but can I maximize the image quality with some other steps? De-interlacing, stuff like that?

Thanks.
