Ok – there’s a lot of wrong settings there. (frame size, frame rate, no explicit data rate etc etc)

I suggest you start with one of the web presets.

It’s also worth reading this:

It’s called ‘Fast Start’

Although you really ought to have a dedicated transcoding application you can turn any Quicktime movie into a Fast start movie with Quicktime Pro or QuickTime conversion in FCP.

No, 720×480 16:9 is anamorphic. There’s loads in the compressor manual about anamorphic encoding. I’d totally recommend reading it.

Right then Al,

If you played it back directly from the T60 hard drive you could potentially encode to an HD file at 1280×720, however if you restrict yourself to DVD playback then you can it can only be at a maximum of 720×480 (16:9).

Assuming you go down the DVD route with compressor, simply choose on of the ’90 minute 16:9 (Widescreen)’ presets and that should get round rid of the letterboxing.
