What alters DVD aspect ratio "to fit screen"
Win 7 32 bit HP.
Win Media Centre and Win Media player
DVD43 to decode other regions' DVDs
A couple of DVDs that I have bought recently have a little message on them just as they start to actually play, saying that the aspect ratio has been altered to fit my screen. This makes everything fat, because the videos are 4:3 and the screen 16:9
If I play the videos in Win Media Player, the message shows, but then the video plays OK. If I play in WMC, the message shows and the video is widened.
So it's not WMC, but something else that is trying to "fix" the video.
Does anyone know what will try to do this? I can't really eliminate DVD43, because the offending DVDs are wrong region and need decoding.
thanks for any help
