    When you have a rip of a movie and you want to convert it is there anyway to make a wide screen movie into full sceen?

    Converting to full screen implies that the right and left sides of the video will be chopped off (normally the WS movie is displayed in letterbox).
    I assume the source movie has no black bars and is to be displayed on a standard 4:3 TV set.
    Some standalone players can zoom in various steps - the first step may give the same effect as a widescreeen conversion.
    If there is no zoom feature available, IfoEdit can be used to modify the files so that the DVD, when played back on a standalone unit into a standard TV set, fills the screen (at the cost of the sides being chopped off).
