Anyone have any tips for good divX settings? I just burnt a disk with some divx files in widescreen and there are black bars all around.
I tried letterbox and pan but it just stretches the file but leaves huge bars on top and bottom.
They were all set at 640x480 resolution
I have divX converter and TMPGENC author 3 (with divX). Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Well the black bars are there to help keep the original aspect ratio. would u rather have a stretched picture or the original aspect ratio? it depends on the original file, but i would it the settings on letterbox. then on the D3 i think you can choose what kind of zoom you want on it, just, zoom, normal...
Well I just burnt another disk with multiple divX files and they all were non readable 
Is there a special version of divX I need to burn these?
The properties of the files say:
Compression: DivX (some YV12)
Sample: 12 bit
Data rate: 204kbps
MP3 audio...
seriously..i just burned my first one, and NONE of the files were readable. they were all "scene" releases. guess ill have to search..
edit: i just followed this guide. havent tested it yet.
I got DivX Converter and it is working great. Just convert all the files, then burn to CD-R or DVD-R
