im very confused.

Hey NBC, did you shoot 4x3? Im just asking because I shot squeezed and captured into a 16x9 project which looks fine in the premiere window. Then I outputed to a 16x9 uncompressed avi which looks fine and has the coorect 16x9 look. Then I created my mpeg that looks fine. When I created a DVD to check on a TV it crops the picture instead of resizing and putting in the black bars. I think the word anamorphic is meaning a tag that will tell the tv to letter box if it sees a 16x9 video source but my video has seemed to have lost its tags somewhere. Anyone have any ideas on how to get this back?

Do you have a program that will tag it for you? I created my file in Sorenson Squeeze, and it automatically tags the file.
 
I fimed in squeeze as well edited in 16.9 and output to a DVD . It looked great on my LCD widescreen BUT blew out on my old 27' t.v . I changed the DVD settings to LB ( letterbox ) and it played perfect , no cropping ) .

As for the tag ...HHMM not sure if Studio 10 even does this for sure , I don't think it does as I said above it blew out . by right it should detect it ( 16.9) and play as such.without changing the DVD settings.. I'll have to ask them .

I am using Canopus Pro coder. I guess I can try sorenson or just read the procoders manual :)
do you mean settings on the DVD player? I looked on the remote for a setting but couldnt find it. I will have to look on the player here. It looks fine on the plasma screen. I will crack open the manual and take a look and see if I can figure this out.

I shot 4:3 UNSQUEEZED letterbox. It does sound as if your file has the 16:9 "flag" set to off, but I barely was able to figure out my problem. Sorry, but I don't know enough to help!
