Hi All,

I hve been using DVDA for sometime and well it is certainly 'rock solid' for what it does. I would like to have a 16:9 menu and 4:3 pal video, is it possible at the minute as I cannot quite get it to work. Any halp would be appreciated.

Cheers

Can you elaborate on what you mean by you can't get it to work?

This seems to work fine for me; I checked the VOB's, and DVDA is correctly flagging the menu as 16:9 and the movie I tried with as 4:3. WinDVD seems to blay things back ok.

I did the reverse of this: 4:3 menu to 16:9 content before dvda was released using dvditpe.

Although it works, there is an issue when the dvd stand alone player / tv set have to readjust from one format to the other which results in a visual hit.

The solution was to fade up and then out to black so it wasn't visble, only a second or two is needed.
