  • Backing up DVDs and aspect ratios :-S[deleted]

    I use Handbrake and set "anamorphic" to none and tick the "keep aspect ratio" box. Aren't most rippers like that?

    I don't really understand what anamorphic is needed for, don't every player stretch the screen to max width anyway?

    Zero does auto-scaling of the screen while maintaining the aspect ratio, which means you will get black bars on the side for wide screens. I haven't been able to test it on anything other than my 16:9 aspect laptop display though, so YMMV.
