Introduction Media Aspect Ratio

Hey there,

Does anyone know if there is a way to change the aspect ratio of the introduction media? It's different from the rest of the DVD for some reason, looks horrible when it swaps over to the main menu, and I can't seem to find any information about it anywhere.

My videos are 720x480, 1 (square) pixel aspect ratio, 30fps.
Visually it goes from being squashed down with bars on the top and bottom, to full sreen.
I'm using the 4.5 trial version here at home, but I tried it on 5.0 pro at work and it did the same thing.

Thanks in advance!

720 x 480 in standard definition is not Square Pixel, so that might be the problem. The aspect should be .9091 NTSC DV.

Hey Dave, thanks very much for the reply!

Unfortunately that is not the answer...I've tried it both in .9 and 1, but the intro is always squashed down further than the rest of the DVD. It seems to have it's own setting.

I've been trying to adjust it so that the intro is 1, with the rest at .9, but that leaves me trying to figure out how to visually align everything so they still match up while being squashed, lol.

Hoi, it's seeming more and more like it's just something weird this program does. :/

YOu might need to check your Project Properties, maybe something is set wrong there.
