Activity Forums Adobe Encore DVD 16:9 playback

    How do I get my transcoded clips to playback in 16:9? I transcode them in my NLE at 640 x 480 squeezed and bring them into Encore.

    I can get the main menu to appear in 16 x 9 but for the life of me, I can’t get my clips to stretch out properly when played back.

    The aspect ration buttons are blurred out in the timeline menu for my transcoded clips.

    Thanks!

    I answered my own question by sifting through aspect ratio posts and found “ReStream”, a free utility that changes the flag of the MPEG2 file. It worked great!

    This from Bob Cole:
    Mpeg movie footage carries a “flag” which sets the aspect ratio. This flag may be observed and reset with freeware such as ReStream, available from the second site listed at https://www.videohelp.com/tools?tool=Restream
