Tried burning DVD movies using neroVision, with every available transcoding quality option (I used 720x480) on it excluding "Super Long Play" and whenever I play it on a DVD player, the image tends to get stretched outta the screen a bit.

Here's a better explanation of my problem;


Red dotted lines represent the max height of my tv.
Red thin lines represent the actual image height being displayed.

Yeah, so its like the images are stretched to the extent of subtitles going out of the window.

Will 704x480 be able to solve the problem? Any idea?

Thanks and sorry about that, will include tag the next time I create a thread.

After tonnes of trial and error (checked my TV's supported resolutions, DVD player's specs and piles of wasted DVD medias), I finally managed to come to an answer. Fixed the height problem by selecting PAL mode over NTSC and fiddling around with available resolutions (D1, 1/2D1 etc). Subtitles appear perfectly now, but I'm still not satisfied with the horizontal side of the image.

PAL mode did it , just need to pick the right resolution and ratio now!
