Hi, my brother-in-law gave us his wedding dvd but the genius
photographer managed to take the 4:3 original and encode it on the DVD
as 16:9, so that it plays only as a stretched letter box on a
conventional player or even PowerDVD (unless I hit ignore aspect
ration on PowerDVD and resize the window). If I use a player with a
digital output into my HDTV monitor then I can see the proper format.
Anyway, can anyone point me at some tools (if it's even possible) to
rip the DVD and reburn it in 4:3 format (or set the 4:3 flag or
whatever I need to do)?
