    I have a 720x480 letterboxed mpeg. When I load it into divx and view list, it says the resolution is 720x528. I double checked with gspot, it's 720x480. If I convert it as is, there is a thick black bar at the bottom of the screen, nothing on top. If I modify the file in view list, checking Use Custom Resolution, and moving the sliders so that they say 720x480, it still comes out off centre. What am I doing wrong? I want the resulting divx conversion to look like the original mpeg.

    See if this helps.

    Run VirtualDubmod and load or drag the AVI into the window.

    'Video' > 'Full Processing mode'
    'Video' > 'Filter' > 'Add' > (Select the Null Transform filter) > 'OK' > 'Cropping' (I think you have to keep the number of pixels even)

    'Adjust as required > 'OK' > 'OK'.

    'Video' > 'Compression' > 'XVid Mpeg4' > 'OK'

    'File' > 'Save as AVI'

    VirtualDubMod

    If required:
    XVid Codec
