The MPEG2 doesn’t playback in 16:9 on any media player but I thought nothing of it because the .VOB didn’t either, only when the original DVD was played it did. So I burned it to a DVD with Nero 7 Premium only to discover to my dismay that it plays back 4:3, not 16:9 as it should. I then tried again but this time forcing it to 16:9 aspect ratio, all this did was add black boarders to the sides of my video.

I’m guessing this is something to do with the file itself, either there must be a special way to extract a .VOB properly from a DVD other than what I’m doing which is simply dragging and dropping. Or something went wrong when I converted it into MPEG2.

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.
