    I’m having trouble with my background image for my DVD menu getting too cropped off on the top.

    I saw people asking about it but no answers that helped me.

    Anyone have a tip on this?

    Make sure you are using an original image that matches the dimensions of DVD. If memory serves for 16:9 NTSC it’s 720×540.

    Thank you James for the tip.

    I ended up guessing at sizes until I got the look I wanted but I will try this for the next one.
