Dark Jedi,

What method do you use to convert 4:3 to 16:9? Is it the same used in ADigitalMan's guide?

Does anyone here know an alternative to that? Thanks!


Actually ADM's guide is what got me into this stuff in the first place. I had investigated a few years ago, and found it way too convoluted to do this. Now the programs are so much better.
I think ADM converts to anamorphic by doing an AVI (compressed via lossless huffyuv) from an AVISynth script in VirtualDubMod. Then using this AVI in TMPGEnc to create the Mpeg-2 file. This was the way I was doing it, until I discovered that you can feed the AVISynth script straight into TMPGEnc (which saves a lot of time and disk space).
