Want to burn dvd's suitable for my 720p tv. I do have a 480p dvd player.
I'm using iSkysoft converter to try and convert & burn the best dvd possible. Hopefully maintaining the 16:9 when applicable, but ultimately looking for the best resolution/least artifacting/transcoding/cropping. Been dloading youtube .flvs / .mp4's, vimeo .movs and dealing with canon mvi's.
FLV's: 16:9 (854x480) / (428x240) & 4:3 (320x240)
MP4's/ MOV's: 16:9 (1280x720) & 4:3 (320x240)
MVI's: 4:3 (640x480)
-------
Haven't burnt yet. So far, I did export the 16:9 (854x480) to mpeg2, but it results in 720x480 4:3. How is this going to display burnt? Will exporting .vob instead maintain 16:9 or exporting to Xvid .avi > data dvd. I'm confused as to how to best maintain the original pixels / 16:9 ratio. Not sure if the scaling is unflattering if I don't crop to 480p. Don't know if square pixelization or other things come into play for this or anything otherwise - I'm all ears though!
I know this is a bit all over the place but there are always so many variables . I am kind of looking for a mult-faceted approach to dealing with these collectively or separately.
thanks for your time in advance
