• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

I'm having a little problem. I have some videos that are in a widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio, but when I put them into iDVD, it stretches the aspect ratio to full screen. You probably already know what this does. I don't want a distorted image playing on my TV screen. Is there a plugin or trick to adding Widescreen videos to iDVD and have it play them as Widescreen? Is there a template I need to use in iMovie to create a standard 4:3 video that has the widescreen video placed inside the top and bottom bars?
