I'm looking for a program that i can use to change the aspect ratio of a video without having to convert the file.

So just the information in the file.

I know i can pick different ratios in things like VLC but i want to correct them for when i play them on stand alone divx dvd player

Is there such a thing?

http://mediacoder.sourceforge.net/

Aspect Ratio, Cropping, Transcoding, blah, blah, blah..

It's teh shitz

as its open source, its gets a +1 from me

Thanks, Its pretty much the same thing im already using. I can't seem to fix the problem but it doesn't matter anyway because when i played it in the dvd player it corrected it itself.

for future reference

I use convertx too sometimes but i have a divx dvd player so i don't really need to convert the files to that format any more.

I guess i didn't really explain my problem properly.

The aspect ratio of this certain video i was talking about was showing by default at 19:10 and i wanted to change it to 16:9 All i wanted to know was if the data that tells the file to play at a certain aspect ratio was editable (my new word) without a program converting the file into a new one with the corrected aspect ratio.

I've had a look but i'll just stick to what i was using.

Thanks anyways.
