I burn a dvd. Then I put it in my DVD player (hooked up to my TV) and it is bigger than it should be. The subtitles are cut halfway off the screen and I lose about an inch of what I should be seeing around all the sides. I have tried adjusting the aspect ratio on the DVD player, but it doesn't help.. What am I doing wrong here? The software is MyDvd, I'm burning AVI files.

i'd try to help you but i have never used this roxio software for avi conversion
BTW, how does the converted file appear when played back on your PC?"One day men will look back and say I gave birth to the 20th Century". Jack The Ripper - 1888

Now... also you should know.. the files are AVI files... I drag and drop them into the program.. should i convert them to mpeg first?Comment

it seems the problem lies with the player then. how does the disc play in another player or PC?"One day men will look back and say I gave birth to the 20th Century". Jack The Ripper - 1888

man that's strange... it is still too big on my playstation 2, my dvd player... it only works at the right size on my computer.. otherwise i lose an inch off all sides on the tvs... it's like the program didn't compensate for the ratio... is there any way to fix this? or do i have to actually buy a new dvd player to watch these?Comment
