    Selection of Wide vs Full Screen

    Anyone know how to select between wide screen and full screen (if available as a selection on the DVD) when using IFOEdit to strip a DVD for back-up? Seems like the default is wide screen and there are a few that I'd like to have in Full Screen.
    Thanks

    i suppose you should act like this ('cause i don't know ifoedit good enough): when you open corresponding ifo - there's a line in main screen section - video....blah-blah-blah...double click on it and change from 16:9 (widescreen) to 4:3 (fullscreen). Is this what you've been asking for?
    If you know the dvd structure well, then it won't be suprisibg to you - the dvd movie is recorded in a fixed resolution - but there's a flag in the ifo file, which tells the player to stretch or squeeze the picture so it shows correct aspect ratio. So even if my suggestion is not working, try something like ReStream - it can change the header parameters of video files.

      Good suggestions all... and thanks but my question is not how to change the output aspect, but, rather how to select within the film parameters wide screen or full screen when this option is available in the menu...of course this is because I'm stripping out everything but the movie
