Brian, what is the resolution of the video to begin with? You can check by
finding the file in whatever folder it resides in, right click on it, then
choose "properties". One of the tabbed screens should hold the frame rate,
data rate, resolutions, etc. information. If it is 720x480 it is full screen
television resolution.

Thanks Larry for your reply.
What I'd like to do is to playback the video on a TV in good quality,
this means that the picture would have to be smaller on the TV as if
the picture fulled the TV screen then it would not be as sharp as the
small picture.
Regards Brian

I have a video file on my hard drive in DivX format. When played on
the computer it's a good quaity 5.5 x 6.25 inch picture on my 17 inch
computert monitor.
Television screen size is measured in inches, not the picture size. The
size
of the video picture on your 17 inch monitor may be 5.5x6.5 when measured
with a ruler, but is only that size because of the resolution being used
on
the desktop. If your video file is 720x480 and your monitor is set to a
resolution of 1280x1024, the video file may well be 5.5x6.5 when measured
with a ruler.
If you were to change your screen resolution to 800x600 that same video
image would measure quite differently with your ruler, and the same is
true
if you were to set the screen resolution to something greater than
1280x1024
where the image would measure at smaller sizes the larger the resolution.
Full screen television is 720x480. Unlike your computer monitor this
resolution cannot be altered on the television. In conclusion, you cannot
guage the size of video playback on a television by measuring with a ruler
horizontally and vertically because that size is ever changing according
to
the resolution of said computer monitor.
Is it possible to playback the video on a TV and
keep the same smaller picture size? If the size of the video fulls the
TV screen then there is a loss in picture quality. In other words I
need a black bar on the top, bottom, left and right of the picture
when viewing on a TV.
I'm hoping that there is some software that can write the video to a
DVD (or convert it into DivX and have the orginal smaller picture size
when played back on a TV.
