Please, please help.. Thanks in advance. Whenever I convert a movie to .dpg format the picture is only about 60% of the actual screen size. I have used the converter that came with the R4 software and yesterday used DVDFAB Plat to convert DVD to .dpg and still the picture was small! I know it must be me or the convert(s) I am using because I downloaded several films/clips from usernet and they were all pukka pictures and took up the whole screen. Is it software/settings? Any help guys and sorry about being inexperienced.
I use BatchDPG and it seems to work flawlessly. Set your height to 192 and width to 256 if you want full screen. I have seen several movies on letterbox/wide, but I can't remember the settings for that off the top of my head. I would recommend BatchDPG.
all sorted on the picture front.. many thanks again.. just one more pointer would be good though. How can I increase the sound output, as currently the sound isn't loud enough on the trains even with headphones! Do I change one of the settings on the BatchDPG?
That I don't know about. I don't think the sampling rate or anything you would change would affect the output volume (somebody correct me there if I'm wrong because I don't have it in front of me). In other words, I'm not sure you can fix it form the software end. The thing I was looking at on this very problem was a head phone amplifier. You can buy them off the shelf, but it looks like a cool DIY project and I really think it would fix the problem. http://tangentsoft.net/audio/cmoy-tutorial/ Failing anything else, maybe more efficient headphones? The kind of headphones that cover the ear?
