    Here's he deal -
    I have a movie that is 720x288 (5:2) and I want it in 16:9 on the DVD. I played around with Virtual dubs filters, but I don't really want a 100gig file on my hard drive, not to mention, I only have about 30gb free.
    I have searched all over and can't find any info on how to go about doing this. Can anyone chime in with some help.

    You migh try AVIDeMux. It has a bunch of filters, can handle a lot of formats and doesn't have to go uncompressed to work on a file.

    In VirtualDub, use the resize filter to letterbox it then select a compressor under 'Video' - otherwise you get very large raw video - use basically the same steps in Avidemux.
