At least with my TV > which can't handle 16:9... That's an option. Alternatively, the player can "pan & scan", i.e. use a 4:3 viewport into the 16:9 frame and display only that part, without black bars. > For instance, Sven's 4:3 TV can and so it is able to make use of the full 576 > lines resolution whereas I (better my DVD-player/Sat-receiver) has to > downscale them to 432 video lines and add 2x72 line black before sending to > the TV. I guess your TV would do the same - if it could. > OK, Actually it seems to add about 80 lines above and 64 below the > true video frame... but that's another story...;-) Makes sense, somehow. With 8x8 macroblocks and 4:2.2 or 4:2:0 chroma resolution, a multiple of 16 lines is probably easier to handle than an odd multiple of 8 lines. -- Michael "Tired" Riepe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> X-Tired: Each morning I get up I die a little ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
