a 16:9 video is still the same resolution as standard 4:3 video. when the
video was encoded for DVD or for broadcast it was squashed width wise and
when it is displayed again it is stretched out to fill the screen.

If you set a DVD player to wide screen on a normal TV and insert a 16:9 DVD
you will see the image as it is stored on the disc, a wide screen TV just
makes this image look as it is meant to.

Is the maximum displayable resolution over svideo 640x480?  I've been having
problems getting anything beyond that...  it would be nice to have a 16:9
display over svideo.
