My son has purchase a Hitachi digital movie cam which makes movies in DVD format (i.e., VIDEO_TS). MC12 does play them, but the camera is supposed to be HD compatible, but MC plays them with a 4:3 aspect ratio when they should be 16:9 (i.e., people in movies are skinny). All other 16:9 DVDs play normally ... anyone got a clue as to why MC gets the AR wrong with these DVD files??
TIA & cheerios
