Pre reading for the question:
pixels on computer monitors are square, pixels on TVs are "tall", in other words, computer monitor with standard ratio 4:3 of NTSC video has resolution 480x640, TVs though, have resolution 480x720, same 4:3 ratio. This is possible becase TV pixels are not square, they are rectagular, height is greater than width. So, if one would take a picture of a perfect circle using digital camera, it would look perfectly round on the computer monitor, but as upright oval on the NTSC TV once authored and put onto DVD. "Manual" solution to get correct pictures (not streched up) onto DVD is to create image on the computer with 720x540 resolution, then resample it to 720x480, making image to look squashed, then put it through authoring applicatoin and onto DVD.
And here comes the question:
How does DVDA addresses that? If one would take a picture of perfectly round cirlce, then import that image (not changing image size) into DVDA creating picture show, will that cirlce look perfectly round once played on a regular DVD player?
