What’s the Max resolution for a 16×9 DVD?

[Bouke Vahl]

It does not downconvert, it’s just that the pixels are not square, so on display it will look right.
720 x 480 is the max. Smaller is possible on a DVD, larger isn’t.
Dive into the square/non square/anamorphic math, you’ll need it to make good looking things.

I use DVD architect so I don’t have to worry about MATH……..

Hated that! Then sometimes it would not work out for whatever reason. Are we monkeys?

DVD architect takes the DV AVI and optimizes it for the disk in the click of a button. Then it does the conversion.

Love that.

Never met another DVD authoring program that I actually liked.
