    downloaded some Japanese anime AVI files and convert them in mpeg using EO VIDEO, then I use Nero Express to burn it as a VCD. It's playing fine on computer, however, when I play it on a DVD machine, I noticed that the bottom and the top part had been trimmed off a little bit. The subtitle of the anime being chopped out 70%.

    The AVI file is in 640x480,
    I tried the followings:
    1/ convert them in PAL (352x288) and burn as PAL VCD

    2/ convert them in NTSC(352x240) and burn as NTSC VCD

    3/ play around with my TVs and machines, change them to the according PAL/NTSC system

    No matter how I try, the subtitle is still the same, being chopped on a standalone machine, playing fine on my computer.

    Does anyone what's going on with my VCDs?
    Please help!!
