Have Directv TIVO with HD. Beyond the frustration of not being able to download ANYTHING in HD, I am trying to download an HD Tracks Ahead episode, using S-Video to a Sony FX-1 and then convert it, via Vegas to a DVD. The problem is, the TIVO seems to download everything in 4:3 and so everything is squished.
The computer download will be accomplished using HDVSplit. Is there anywhere in this string of processes where I can stretch this picture back out to 16x9? I was hoping that choosing a wide screen project in Vegas would solve the problem but that only gives me a wide screen with black bars on each side and a squished picture in the middle.
Repeat with me: "I HATE the tv/movie industries for restricting our ability to download and record HD programming......." #!!@&!
