Hope somebody can lend some advice on this!
I've got a number of videos on DVD which are letterboxed 4:3, when they really should be anamorphic widescreen 16:9. I need to extract the videos from the DVDs, convert them to 16:9, and then re-author the discs. So this means cropping the black bars at the top and bottom as well (as the DVDs are fullframe letterboxed).
It's nothing to do with pirating DVDs - it's some bits and bobs filmed by myself and friends and authored to DVD as letterboxed video a few years ago. None of the original video elements exist, unfortunately.
I've found a little bit of info on the internet but not much. Can anybody give me some tips on converting these videos into 16:9? I've got the following tools at my disposal:
1. DVD Studio Pro 4
2. Quicktime Pro 7
3. MacTheRipper
4. HandBrake
5. Final Cut Pro 5
6. FFmpeg
Cheers!
