Please log in for more thread options That's not entirely true. WMP will stretch undersized video only on PPCs
that have that feature added somehow. The Dell X50 does so using it's built
in graphics processor. The HP 4700s did not do this to the dismay of it's
owners. Their 320x240 videos played at 320x240. Your encoded DVDs may look
wonderful to you. I don't doubt that, TCPMP is a nifty piece of work. You
are still faced with the fact you only have 76,800 bits of info to fill
307,200 pixels with. You have to fill an area four times as big as the video
was intended for.
