How do they do that?
I need to author an anamorphic DVD that plays back letterboxed on a 4×3 TV, regsrdless of whether the menu is set to 4×3 pan and scan or 4×3 letterboxed.
I edited on Avid Xpress DV 4.6 and I’m authoring on a friend’s Mac with Toast Titanium 8. I export from Avid as a progressive scan DV-NTSC quicktime at the native resolution. I will probably send the job out before buying any software since I’m going to be switching to Final Cut soon, but would appreciate some insight into the theory.
Thanks!

Output your NTSC-DV as anamorphic 16×9. In your authoring program, make sure you check everywhere that you’re intending to author a 16×9 program – authoring programs sometimes have lots of areas to check for 4×3 references. Import your 16×9 clips and make sure they are flagged as 16×9. To do a test: create a short 16×9 clip, render it out, import it into your authoring program, author the dvd then try it on a 4×3 set.
