Help with screen dimensions on DVDx 2.0!

[kitalamano]

Hello all.

I'm having some troubles with the final screen size of the vcd after encoding my dvd rip (smartripper).

I open the *.ifo file in the DVDx 2.0, select all the input and output options, but the Zoom Option is killing me.

If someone could tell me wich are the correct setting for VCD/SVCD PAL compliant I would be very appreciated.

Cheers

i´ve tried that, but when i select that size the final image quality is very poor with black bars on top, bottom and both sides.

Don't base your opinion of the quality of your VCDs/SVCDs on how they look on your computer monitor - they are intended for display on your television, which has a much lower resolution (Results look MUCH better on TV)...

Yes. I know that.

The thing is that I also try to encode small vobs and then burn them to an cd-rw and try it on the dvd player and tv, and the quality still sucks....

I'm puzzled.
Is it possible to be a bad version of DVDx 2.0???
