The Aiptek camera I have has 320X240 and 352X288 aspect ratios. Aiptek states that these comply to ntsc but the 288 part looks like a pal standard?
If I upscale the 352X288 times 2, this gets me 704X576. I had used a resize filter in VD to make the final aspect 720X480. On a TV the aspect looks a little off, with about a fraction of an inch cutoff of black from top to bottom.
Do I need to use 704X576, 704X480 instead of the default 720X480 standard for DVD? Half of DVD comes out to 360X240. For ntsc wouldn't the Aiptek aspect be 352X240 instead of 352X288? This is very confusing, lol.
Aiptek, as well as other camera makers, specify that the 352 aspects are vhs quality?? This can't be true. I have vhs tapes that displayed much better quality than a lot of the 352 videos I had seen done from a computer. Is this just a wordy gimmick by the camera makers? |

Just use DivXtoDVD to convert to NTSC DVD compliant MPEG2.
Under Standard Choose "Force NTSC 29.97 Fps
Here is a download link for the free version...

Thanks Darrel
Is there a way to combine the mpegs during the encoding to DVD in that program? Originally the files I have are segmented and I'm using fat32 so I can go beyond 4GB in write operation but combining files that are segmented aren't a problem. I prefer fat32 over ntfs for preference reasons. |
