Title: 16:9 problem
Post by: endless_soul on May 20, 2008, 06:14:09 PM
hello,
i find myself having some problems in making a 16:9 dvd, and i dont know why.
im recording with either sony hc47 or hdv-hc3 with setting 16:9 selected.
i edit with vegas pro8 > again setting are selected for 16:9.
the problem arise when i need to create teh dvd with dvd architect.
if i select the widescreen option, the image is not covering the whole screen, it looks like this:

any ideas on why or how to sort this out?
i also have tried to create a menu with ulead, but after editing in vegas some verical lines appear which are not there if i do it with dvd architect.
thanks
miky

Make sure your architect project settings are 16:9 too. Also, are you letting architect render for you? If so, it's better to do the MPEG2 and audio renders from Vegas first, then import into Architect.

Make sure your camcorder is set for 16:9 playback too.  If it is 4:3, it will give it the bars at the top and bottom and then if you try to make it 16:9 it will recognize it as 4:3 and give it the bars on the sides too.
