, it clearly states that the movie's aspect ratio is 2.35:1. Also, anamorphic widescreen encoding refers to [URL=]encoding the movie as 16:9 instead of 4:3 (fullscreen) as you can see here:

and in each case the resizing settings are different.
Not sure what you're trying to say here.You're wrong. The method is correct, although I did make some simplifications:
