[mythtv-users] Re: black border in ffmpeg nuvexport

[David Whyte]

Gavin,

Did you ever get the chance to look at this?  I have noticed all of my
exports to DivX have this black border and Windows Media player
doesn't allow you to zoom it out of the way.

I am currenty doing an export to DVD and hope I don't have the same problem :|

Cheers,
Dave
