> can someone PLEASE tell me how to get to the 1.85 aspect ratio?

It depends on what pixel count you want in each direction. If you want square pixels, just multiply your height by 1.85. For example, if you wanted 400 pixels tall, you would use 740 pixels wide. Or, divide the desired width by 1.85 (e.g., 640 / 1.85 = 346). Then, set the pixel aspect ratio to 1.000.

Alternatively, if you have a known pixel size (say, 640 x 480), you can calculate the required pixel aspect ratio by dividing 1.85 by the width and then the height. For example, 1.85 * 480 / 640 = 1.388.
