Hi Thomas

I'll look out for your log.

There is not a screen layout setting when outputting to a video file. You could output as a Widescreen SVCD or XSVCD slideshow and then grab the MPEG file that is created.

Thanks, Nigel:

Why MPEG file could not create Widescreen?

How do make Widescreen If I select the "others video" MPEG file?.

Thanks!

Well on the one hand you can make a widescreen video just by setting the pixel size to something in a 16:9 ratio e.g. 240x426 pixels (by choosing the custom video format in DVD PixPlay), but normally (with DVD videos) a wide screen video is the same width as a standard video except that a setting in the video file tells the player to display it wider (or put another way the shape of each pixel is now rectangular rather than squarish.

It depends on your purpose for the video as to which is the better method.

Yes, that is correct.

E.g. 540 x 960 for a DVD-like video file.
