Hello.

I am in doubt about what aspect ratio to use
when encoding SVCDs from a widescreen source.

For instance, today I have encoded a movie from
an AVI source with frame size 800x344 to SVCD
with both aspect ratios 4:3 and 16:9. For the
16:9 aspect ratio the needed black border at
the top and the bottom of the movie image is
smaller than for 4:3. I believe that as a result
more bits are used for the image itself,
giving a better quality. When playing the
SVCD at a normal TV (aspect ratio 4:3), the
DVD player will add black borders to fit
the image into the TV screen.

Am I right expecting better quality results
with a 16:9 aspect ratio in the SVCD?

Regards.

Romildo
